Michele Bachmann says to seek 4th term in Congress after failed presidential bid
By Associated Press,
MINNEAPOLIS Minnesota Rep. Michele Bachmann announced Wednesday she will seek a fourth term in the U.S. House following her failed presidential bid.
Bachmann declared her plans in an interview with The Associated Press. The Republican congresswoman had been mum on her plans since folding her presidential campaign after a poor showing in the Iowa caucuses earlier this month.
Im looking forward to coming back and bringing a strong, powerful voice to Washington, D.C., Bachmann said.
Bachmann will be a formidable candidate in Minnesotas 6th District, where other Republican hopefuls had stood aside until she made a decision on running for re-election. Some experts had speculated that Bachmann might instead turn to a career in talk media.
