NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WSMV) - Sen. Marsha Blackburn made it official on Wednesday morning.

It was expected, but the senator announced she is running to be the next governor of Tennessee.

“In his first six months, President Trump has made historic strides in Making America Great Again, but as he sends power back to the states, he’s going to need strong conservative governors who can bring that revolution home. I’m running to serve as Tennessee’s next governor to ensure Tennessee is America’s conservative leader,” Sen. Blackburn said. “I’m ready to deliver the kind of conservative leadership that will ensure our state is America’s conservative leader for this generation and the next, and I would be honored to have your support.”
