Will Carly Fiorina Challenge Tim Kaine in 2018 Senate Race?

McLEAN, VA -- Is Carly Fiorina planning a challenge to U.S. Sen. Tim Kaine in 2018? The Fairfax County resident who ran in the GOP presidential primary was rumored to be considering a run if Hillary Clinton and Tim Kaine had won the presidential election, according to Politico. It's uncertain what her plans are now. She challenged California Sen. Barbara Boxer in a high-profile campaign in 2010, losing the race after receiving 42 percent of the vote.

Fiorina became a resident of Virginia in 2011, after she and her husband Frank purchased a mansion for $6.1 million (it was listed for $7.8 million) in the Mason Neck area of Fairfax County, according to Washingtonian magazine.

In any case, Fiorina is upping her profile in the Commonwealth with appearances like the one she's making Monday in McLean. She'll be speaking about "Lessons in Leadership" from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. at the Hilton McLean Tysons Corner, hosted by the Northern Virginia Chamber of Commerce. The venue is located at 7920 Jones Branch Dr. in McLean.

Fiorina's story: She worked as a secretary and became the first female CEO of a major corporation. She'll talk about:

• How she challenged the status quo to become a successful CEO
• Her commitment to philanthropy and service
• How she has dealt with personal adversity

Registration is $100 for Northern Virginia Chamber members or $125 for non-members and is available online. Tables of 10 are available to members for $950 or non-members for $1,125.
