Sam Graves likes being a congressman, won’t run against Claire McCaskill

Sam Graves knows that his seat in Congress is safe. He cruised to victories in his last two elections, including walloping former Kansas City Mayor Kay Barnes. After 11 years, he doesn’t even have to call “quack, quack, seat back.”

So it’s not much of a surprise that Graves doesn’t want to make a run at Claire McCaskill‘s Senate seat. The announcement came with a concise tweet from Graves’ consultant, Jeff Roe (via KMBC’s Mike Mahoney): “Graves is out for US Senate.”
