White House chief of staff Mark Meadows put to rest rumors he would be seeking a Senate seat in the 2022 mid-term election, telling The News & Observer on Nov. 20 that his hat “won’t be in the ring.”
Meadows, a Republican who represented North Carolina constituents in the House before joining the Trump administration earlier this year, told the publication in a phone interview, “I not only have no plans, I have no intentions to run for the Senate in 2022.”
