himself
for
a
run
at
the
US
senate
in
2018,
replacing
Dianne
Feinstein,
the
Democratic
Senate.
However,
the
former
California
governor
Arnold
Schwarzenegger
denied
all
the
claims
of
his
senate
run
and
stated
that
he
has
much
responsibilities
to
look
after
before
taking
such
decisions.
Schwarzenegger
took
to
his
social
media
handle
and
posted
that,
"I'm
deeply
flattered
by
all
of
the
people
who
have
approached
me
about
running
for
Senate,
but
my
mission
right
now
is
to
bring
sanity
to
Washington
through
redistricting
reform
like
we
passed
here
in
California."

"Gerrymandering
has
completely
broken
our
political
system
and
I
believe
my
best
platform
to
help
repair
it
is
from
the
outside,
by
campaigning
for
independent
redistricting
commissions." Said
Arnold
Schwarzenegger.
Schwarzenegger
also

your

the

you'll
join
me
in
my
battle
against
gerrymandering
with
the
same
enthusiasm," Schwarzenegger
added
further.
