COOS COUNTY — District 1 state Sen. Erin Hennessey’s announcement that she will not run for re-election has set off a scramble of candidates lining up to run for the seat. The Republican from Littleton caught many off-guard with her decision two weeks ago not to seek a second term.
She said she wanted to spend more time with her two daughters before they grow up and go off to college and did not close the door on returning to politics at some future point.
