Nixon responds to Blunt announcement


Attorney General Jay Nixon, who had been expected to face Matt Blunt in this year's governor race, issued a response on his website to Blunt's announcement today that he will not seek a second term:

"My campaign for Governor has always been about moving Missouri forward. I will continue to focus on changing the direction of our state so that more Missourians have access to health care, more Missourians can find good-paying jobs and more Missouri children can get the quality education they deserve.

"I wish Gov. Blunt and his family all the best in the future."
