“Craig announcing resignation today”
It’s official, replacement named:
Bowing to intense pressure from his Republican colleagues, Sen. Larry Craig (R-Idaho) will announce today that he is resigning his seat in Congress following revelations that he was arrested in a men’s bathroom and charged with lewd and lascivious behavior for soliciting sex from an undercover police officer.
Idaho Gov. C.L. “Butch” Otter, a Republican, plans to appoint Lt. Gov. Jim Risch to fill out Craig’s term in the Senate, according to a GOP source. Craig is expected to officially leave the Senate on Sept. 30th, sources said.
