WASHINGTON (AP) Secretary of State Mike Pompeo appears to be ruling out a Kansas Senate race in 2020.
Pompeo, who represented Kansas 4th Congressional District from 2011 to 2017, says hell serve as secretary of state as long as President Donald Trump wants him to.
Pompeo was asked on NBCs Today show this morning if hes interested in running for the Senate and replied, I love doing what Im doing. When an interviewer said Pompeo sounded as though he wasnt ruling it out, Pompeo said, Its ruled out.
Last month, Pompeo deflected speculation he might run for retiring Republican Sen. Pat Roberts seat, telling Fox News he was focused on his current job.
