U.S. Senator James M. Inhofe, current chair of the Senate Armed Services Committee, announced he will seek reelection, CQ reported.
The 85-year-old Republican has been a senator in Oklahoma since 1994. As of Dec. 31 Inhofe had $2.3 million in his campaign account.
Inhofe made the announcement with a campaign video of him flying his plane upside down. “When people say: ‘You’re too old to run (for reelection),’ my response is always: ‘When I’m too old to fly an airplane upside down, then I’m too old to run.’”
