Mitch McConnell holds onto Senate seat from Kentucky
[NYPOST] Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell won a seventh term on Tuesday, turning back a challenge from Democrat Amy McGrath, according to a projection announced by Fox News.McConnell, a six-term Republican, has been the Senate majority leader since the GOP took control of the upper chamber of Congress in 2015.

His victory came just weeks after he shepherded President Trump’s nomination of appeals court Judge Amy Coney Barrett to succeed the late Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg and strengthen the high court’s conservative majority, 6-3.

On his official government website, McConnell touts his reputation as "the most conservative leader of either party in the history of the Senate."

He also takes pride in calling himself the "Grim Reaper" for his ability to kill liberal legislation put forward by House Speaker Nancy San Fran Nan Pelosi
Congresswoman-for-Life from the San Francisco Bay Area, born into a family of professional politicians. On-again-off-again Speaker of the House. It's not her fault when they lose, but it's her accomplishment when they win. Noted for her heavily botoxed grimace and occasional senior... uhhh... moments...
(D-Calif.).

During the campaign, McConnell said his powerful post allowed him to deliver federal funds and craft policies that benefit the Bluegrass State.
