Bemidji Lawmaker Frank Moe Calls It Quits

Two-term Bemidji State Representative Frank Moe decided last Friday not to run for a third term, the day before Saturday's endorsing convention in Walker. Moe said he'd been thinking about it for some time, and understood that to announce his intentions before the end of the session could have some consequences. Moe said his primary reason for not running again was the time he had to spend away from home, his wife, his flower shop business, and his sled dogs. Representative Moe also intends to finish his Ph.D at the University of Minnesota.
