Sen. Claire McCaskill (D-Mo.) wants you to know that even our top elected officials get called for jury duty.

McCaskill, who served as a prosecutor earlier in her career, has been live-tweeting her experience on Monday as she waits to find out if she'll be assigned to a case back home in Missouri.

She's commented on her fellow jurors, her wardrobe choice, lunch and Perry Mason, among other topics. Check out some of her tweets below or go to her Twitter account:

UPDATE: McCaskill was ultimately selected for the jury.
