Seifert not seeking another term in MN House.
GOP state Rep. Marty Seifert announced this morning in Marshall that he will not be seeking an eighth term in the Minnesota House. Seifert, a Republican who is running for governor, held a news conference in Marshall this morning. The Marshall Independent said Seifert made the announcement so other candidates and his constituents know his plans:
"The decision was made a long time ago not to run, regardless of how the governor's race goes and before Governor Tim Pawlenty announced he was not seeking re-election," Seifert said.
Seifert has a a 1:30 PM Capitol news conference scheduled, where he will presumably make the same announcement.
