WASHINGTON — Senator McCain of Arizona is not currently protected by the Secret Service, despite having locked up the Republican nomination for president and spending most of his time campaigning before large crowds, the director of the agency testified yesterday.
The director of the Secret Service, Mark Sullivan, told a House appropriations subcommittee that the two-time presidential contender has not yet requested the agency’s services.
