Former Sen. Al Franken (D-Minn.) on Wednesday said “it would be tempting” to run for office again, more than four years after he resigned from the upper chamber amid accusations of sexual misconduct.

Asked during an interview with Washington Post Live if he would ever run again, Franken said “I don’t know,” but did not rule it out.

“I certainly loved my time in the Senate. I loved the job. I got a lot done. I was able to accomplish things I couldn't accomplish anywhere else, I don't think. So, yeah, it would be tempting to try to do that again,” he said.

Franken moved to New York City’s Upper West Side last year, according to Politico.
