Senate Republican spokeswoman Diane Kinderwater just emailed the news about Asbill.

Sen. Harden |
Meanwhile, the Clovis News Journal reported Saturday that Harden won't run this year. Harden, a former state Labor secretary, perhaps best was known for being a champion of children with autism.
Last week another candidate, political newcomer Angie Spears, announced she was running for Harden's seat.
