| Description | The field of contenders for the Democratic nomination for the 8th Congressional District special election has narrowed.
Rep. Linda Black of Bonne Terre, Mo., has dropped out of the race. In a statement Thursday, Black cited her desire to continue representing the 117th House District.
"I am honored and humbled at the outpouring of support I have received from residents of the 8th District urging me to run for Congress," Black said in the statement. "However, when voters elected me to another term as state representative last November, it was with the expectation that I would serve a full two-year term." |
