		</div><p>A US senator has said she turned down Donald Trump’s request to run as his vice president in 2016 because of family concerns.</p>
<p>Joni Ernst, who represents Iowa, made the claim in an affidavit in a divorce proceeding that was first reported by Cityview, a Des Moines alternative newspaper.</p>
<p>The filing was made in October but unsealed this month after Ms Ernst and her former husband, Gail Ernst, settled their previously contentious divorce.</p>
<p>Ms Ernst wrote that, after Mr Trump interviewed her in July 2016 to be his running mate: <em>“I turned Candidate Trump down, knowing it wasn’t the right thing for me or my family.”</em></p>
<p>She said it was a sacrifice she made for her husband, who was not fond of her political career.</p>
