On Wednesday Attorney General John Kroger of Oregon announced he will not be
seeking reelection in 2012. General Kroger, a former Assistant US Attorney
and law professor, is currently in his first term after winning with an
overwhelming 72% of the vote in 2008. He was considered a strong contender
for reelection after securing both the Democratic and Republican nomination
in 2008.

General Kroger announced he has been recently diagnosed with a serious, but
not life-threatening, medical condition and, after consulting with his
doctor, has decided to forgo the campaign trail for 2012. Currently no other
candidates have been speculated about in Oregon but DAGA will be seeking to
engage in candidate recruitment across the state.

DAGA wishes General Kroger good health as he finishes out his term.

[3]Kroger won't run for re-election; cites medical condition
_The Statesman Journal _– October 18, 2011
Oregon Attorney General John Kroger announced today that he won’t run for
reelection, citing a significant but not life-threatening medical condition.
Kroger, a Democrat first elected in 2008, said: “I was recently diagnosed
and am under the care of a physician at OHSU (Oregon Health & Science
University) for a significant but not life-threatening medical condition. It
will not interfere with my legal work or prevent me from completing my term,
but I will need to reduce my hours, travel less and be careful about my
health.

[5]Editorial | Endorsements 2011: Re-elect Jack Conway as attorney general
_The Louisville Courier-Journal _– October 15, 2011
Despite a disappointing campaign for U.S. Senate last year, when he was
swept up in a Republican tidal wave that sent Rand Paul, the Republican, to
Washington, Mr. Conway remains one of the ablest public servants in
Kentucky. We enthusiastically support his re-election.
