Kern County Supervisor David Couch is considering a run for state Senate.

The District 4 supervisor confirmed the news to KGET on Monday and says he’s thinking about running for the District 12 seat held by Republican Shannon Grove who will be termed out in 2026.

Couch’s current term on the Board of Supervisors ends in 2028.

He says he’ll make a decision about a bid for the Senate in the coming weeks.
