(America decides) McConnell projected to keep Senate seat in KentuckyCBS News projects that US Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell will retain his Senate seat in Kentucky, meaning he will almost certainly be the Republican leader in January. McConnell fended off a well-funded challenger in Amy McGrath, after national Democrats poured roughly US$100 million into her campaign, even though polling didn't show the race was particularly close. In January, 78-year-old McConnell will begin his seventh term in the Senate.
