Action film star Steven Seagal told reporters over the weekend that he is considering running for governor of Arizona. Seagal told KNXV-TV reporters[1] that he has discussed a bid for the highest office in The Grand Canyon State after discussing his interest in the office with Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio.
“The 61-year-old made the comments while talking about his newly released reality series Steven Seagal – Lawman: Maricopa County,” the Associated Press reports. “Seagal teamed up with Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio for the show that was shot in Arizona and airs on cable TV’s Reelz Channel.”
Seagal is a member of Arpaio’s 3,000 member “posse” of unpaid civilians helping to combat illegal activities and augment border security in the Arizona county. The martial arts expert has also been deputized by sheriffs’ offices in Texas, Louisiana, and New Mexico.
