Shadegg Reverses Decision, Will Run in AZ-3   more similar news »
"At the urging of his Republican colleagues, Rep. John Shadegg (R-AZ) is reversing his decision not to run for reelection, giving a boost to GOP hopes of retaining the seat," The Hill reports.

"Shadegg said he was 'stunned' and 'humbled' by the response he received at home and on Capitol Hill and, after careful consideration, decided he would run for another term."

CQ Politics: "Shadegg’s decision to seek an eighth term reduces to 25 the number of House seats being left open by Republicans who are retiring or seeking other offices, and it is surely welcome at the National Republican Congressional Committee, which is charged with defending those districts."

CQ has a good backgrounder on AZ-3.
