Statement from Republican Congressman Larry Combest on Tuesday 12 November 2002 "There have been a number of events that have happened to Sharon and me in the last year that have made us realize how fragile life and health are. They certainly caused us to rearrange our priorities and we want to spend as much time together while we have our life and health. In order for us to be able to spend that time together, I will submit my resignation from Congress effective on May 31, 2003. That should provide ample time for individuals who wish to run for the office to make their intentions known and for there to be a special election to fill the seat." "Through ten elections, the people of the 19th Congressional District have been very kind to us and words cannot express our appreciation for the confidence they have shown in us. We have so many wonderful friends and are looking forward to being at home in Lubbock to enjoy their friendship even more." | |||
