Description | OLYMPIA, Wash. —
Washington Gov. Chris Gregoire announced Monday she will not seek re-election, saying it is time to step aside after two terms in office and decades in public service.
"It's time for me to go on and do something else," the Democrat said at a news conference surrounded by family.
Gregoire said she intends to focus her final year and a half on the economy, and she gave her cabinet energy drinks Monday morning as a symbol that there's still lots of work left to be done. |
