Two days after Domino’s Pizza CEO David Brandon signaled that he will not run for the Senate next year, Reps. Candice Miller (R) and Dave Camp (R) have endorsed the Rev. Keith Butler for the GOP nod.

Miller was Republican leaders’ first choice to take on freshman Sen. Debbie Stabenow (D) next year, but she declined.

“I enthusiastically endorse Keith in his campaign for the U.S. Senate,” Miller said in a statement. “Over the last few months Keith has proven that he is the type of leader who can serve our state well.”

Michigan Republican Party Chairman Saul Anuzis made Brandon’s decision official Wednesday when he released a statement saying Brandon would instead seek re-election to the University of Michigan’s Board of Regents.
