From The Sacramento Bee:
State Sen. Michael Rubio announced today that he will not run for Congress next year after all.
The 34-year-old East Bakersfield Democrat had been eying a bid for the newly drawn 21st Congressional District in which Democrats hold a 10 percentage point advantage in voter registration.
Rubio, elected to the Senate last year, said he looks forward to staying in the Legislature, where he is eligible to serve seven more years and is not slated for re-election until 2014.
