Republican Senator, John Ensign, of Nevada has announced he will not be seeking a third term in order to spare his family of the "wear and tear" of an ongoing ethics investigation in his extramarital affair. His website has said the official resignation will take place on May 3rd. The Senate Majority Leader, Harry Reid (D-NV), has said he has, "appreciated John’s partnership in working with me to address our state’s needs. He was a strong advocate for Nevada, and worked for many years to improve our state.” Reid later also said, “I know this is a difficult time for the family and I wish them all well as they work through it.”
