Edward ("Ted") Moore Kennedy (born February 22, 1932) is a United States Senator.
He was elected to the Senate from the state of Massachusetts in 1962 to fill the vacant seat left by his brother, John F. Kennedy, upon the latter's becoming President of the United States. Kennedy, a Democrat, has been re-elected to the seat ever since.
After a party on Chappaquiddick Island on July 18, 1969, Senator Edward Kennedy drove an Oldsmobile off a wooden bridge into a tide-swept pond and his passenger and aide, Mary Jo Kopechne, drowned. Kennedy didn't report the incident for 10 hours.
