Confirmed: Pence will not seek Bayh's Senate seat

“After receiving considerable encouragement to run for the United States Senate last month, Mr. Pence made a decision to seek re-election to the House of Representatives and help lead a conservative comeback in 2010 and that decision stands,” Pence spokesman Matt Lloyd said. “Mr. Pence’s decision was made irrespective of polls or Senator Bayh’s intention to seek re-election.”

“Mr. Pence believes that Republicans will retake the House in 2010 and he counts it a privilege to be a part of the House Republican leadership during this historic election,” he continued. “Mr. Pence has filed for re-election to the 6th Congressional District of Indiana and will continue serve his constituents and help lead the effort to retake the House of Representatives.”
