Graff Leaving Senate Democrats, Slap to Replace as Chief of Staff.

Senate Democrat Chief of Staff Kevin Graff will be leaving his job to work in the government relations trade. He’ll be starting his own shop, Daily Ructions has learned. Supplicants will become competitors in the fierce business beginning today. It’s tougher than it looks.

Caucus spokesman Derek Slap is expected to replace Graff in what most see as Senator Don Williams’ swan song as caucus leader.
