Gutierrez: I want Obama's Senate seat

November 7, 2008 at 11:53 AM

U.S. Rep. Luis Gutierrez said today he would like to be named to fill the U.S. Senate seat that will be vacated by President-elect Barack Obama.

The Illinois Democrat said he has talked a few times with Gov. Rod Blagojevich about the prospect, and said he and the governor will talk more next week.

Under state law, Blagojevich gets to appoint a replacement for Obama.

When asked who approached whom about the subject, Gutierrez shrugged and said: "We talked."

"My priority isn't being in the House or being in the Senate," Gutierrez said. "My priority is immigration reform. Wherever I feel I can be most effective is where I want to be." :roll: :roll:
