WASHINGTON (Reuters)—U.S. Senate Republicans, who failed to win control of the chamber in last week's midterm elections, on Wednesday voted to keep Mitch McConnell as their caucus leader, a spokesperson said.
McConnell fended off a challenge by Senator Rick Scott, who had run the Republicans' election organization.
