Idaho Attorney General Lawrence Wasden will seek a sixth term for office as a Republican in 2022, writes Kelcie Moseley-Morris in the Idaho Capital Sun.
Wasden was first elected in 2002, making him the longest serving attorney general in Idaho history. He will face several opponents in the May primary, including former U.S. Rep. Raúl Labrador, who announced last week he is running for the post, the story reads.
Other candidates who have appointed a political treasurer as Republicans seeking the office are Coeur d’Alene attorneys Arthur Macomber and D. Colton Boyles.
“It is an honor to serve my home state as attorney general,” Wasden wrote in the release. “I love Idaho and its people and still feel I have something to offer. I’m humbled by the opportunity to again throw my hat in the ring.”
