In this note we observe that the exact Maxwell-Einstein equations in the background metric of a spinning string can be solved analytically. This allows us to construct an analytical model for the magnetosphere which is approximately force free near to the spinning string. As in the case of a Kerr black hole in the presence of an external magnetic field the spinning string will acquire an electric charge which depends on the vorticity carried by the spinning string. The self-generated magnetic field and currents strongly resemble the current and magnetic field structure of the jets associated with active galaxies as they emerge from the galactic center.
