The political future of Pennsylvania Sen. Pat Toomey is unknown, according to a report today, indicating that he may not run for reelection or for governor of Pennsylvania in 2022.
The Philadelphia Inquirer reported the news Sunday, citing two people familiar with his plans.
While the 58-year-old Republican senator is expected to serve out his current term, he is not expected to seek another term or to run for governor, for which he was seen as a likely GOP candidate, according to the Inquirer.
Toomey is expected to make an announcement Monday morning, spokesman Steve Kelly said.
He has served in the U.S. Senate since 2011 and is now the only Republican holding a non-judicial statewide elective office in Pennsylvania.

Just another empty suit pubbie, good riddance.
Just hope we have a good replacement. That Sean parcel seems possible if he can beat Connor lamb.
Barletta had some pretty mediocre ratings among a lot of conservative organizations that rate House and Senate members over the years. That should have served him well in a state where Democrats outnumber Republicans among registered voters.
Whether retirement or primary, we MUST replace the Bush League Republicans.
Wonder how much wreckage he can cause on his way out.
Goodbye RINO.
Hazleton Heights born!
Don't let the door hit ya' where the Good Lord split ya',Pat.
If Trump wins; the Republicans hold the Senate and can take the House, any Republican going back to squishy, spineless Paul Ryanoism must be held accountable. We have to hold their GOPee feet, legs, and butt to the proverbial fire. No more appeasers, they have to grow a pair or resign and let someone that will “reach across the aisle” with a Louisville Slugger take their seat.

WHO cares??? This is 2 years away!!
Once though of pRick as the worst wasted talent of the last 20 years. Numbskull staff made him bite on ridiculous shit like banning the NWS in favor of private weather forecasting enterprises, and sure enough he had taken money from same. NWS is .0001% of the Budget. Pick your goddamn fights.
And then his repeated presidential electoral stompings made him anathema, except to CNN who uses him as a doofus punching bag. Dude is deluded.
OF course. Not surprised. You never give a crap about anything.
You must be joking....or else you are Mrs. Toomey!! You need a nap, honey.
Wasn’t he the one with Joe Manchin that almost got a gun control law passed?
Why do you hate the military so much??????? Either that or you are ignorant as hell.
I'll settle for the hot take which is, Toomey's handpuppets are convinced Trump is getting a 2nd term.
Which is kind of wild, given Toomey could have had a Cabinet had he played this even marginally better.
I was never going to vote for him again, I wouldn't vote for a demonRAT, but I'd have left that spot open.
He was such a disappointment, but every PA senator in my life has been a disappointment, except John Heinz, and he was killed in a plane crash while serving in the senate.
Santorum was the closest thing we had to a real senator, but he couldn't get re-elected in a club where almost everyone gets re-elected.
Just the right age and experience to make his fortune as a lobbyist. Just like with term limits, there needs to be a five-year moratorium after serving in the House, Senate or Executive Branch before you can be a lobbyist.
