Giffords Aide to Run for Ariz. Seat |
|
A top aide to former U.S. Rep. Gabrielle Giffords who was shot in the leg and face in the Tucson rampage that also left the congresswoman severely wounded announced Thursday that he will seek to replace her in a special election. Democrat Ron Barber declared he would run to serve the last six months of Giffords' term, and his announcement comes after she stepped down last month to focus on her recovery. He told The Associated Press that Giffords and her husband, retired astronaut Mark Kelly, asked him to run.
