TOPEKA, Kan. (AP) - Retiring Congressman Dennis Moore's wife might seek his seat. Moore hinted Saturday that his wife, Stephene, is a potential Democratic candidate in Kansas' 3rd District. The congressman told fellow Democrats during a luncheon to "stay tuned." State Democratic Party Chairman Larry Gates also confirmed Stephene Moore is "possibly on the list." However, the congressman's wife said she hasn't made any decisions and declined to comment further. The congressman is not seeking another term this year after serving 12 years in the U.S. House. Lake Quivira doctor Elizabeth Gallup already has filed for the Democratic nomination and at least seven Republicans are running. Dennis Moore is the only Democrat in the state's Congressional delegation.
