Grant Woods was McCain's chief of staff when McCain served in the House in the 1980s.

Woods told the Post that he has spoken to several Democratic senators about potentially running for the seat, including Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (N.Y.). He also said he's spoken to North Dakota Sen. Heidi Heitkamp (D) and New Mexico Sen. Tom Udall (D).

Woods, who supported Hillary Clinton in the 2016 presidential election, told the Post he won't consider running as a Republican as long as Trump is in charge.
