Sanders considering retirement ... again

Sen. Hank Sanders, D-Selma, said Thursday he is in the process of finalizing whether to run again and said he is "leaning toward not running."

Sanders, chairman of the Senate education budget committee, previously announced he was not running for an eighth term, but has received encouragement to run again for the district that includes all or part of Autauga, Clarke, Conecuh, Dallas, Lowndes, Marengo, Monroe, Perry, and Wilcox counties.

He said he will probably decide in the next two weeks.
