↵In the best interests of my district, I am resigning from my campaign for the Oregon House of Representatives. A 2006 legal issue has arisen that needs my immediate attention. I am not at liberty to disclose the details, but my name was involved in a real estate case that requires a ruling. If the ruling is adverse, I would be disqualified from running for office until 2011. So, given that possibility, I have chosen to withdraw my name as a candidate in 2010. I will continue to contribute to my community and ensure that we have a capable candidate to run for my district in November.
Chael Sonnen Withdraws From Bid For Oregon House Of Representatives
↵Since Sonnen can’t replace any details there aren’t many details to give on the legal issues. However, taking this off his table may be a good thing when it comes to his ability to focus for his upcoming shot at Anderson Silva’s UFC middleweight championship. It also will free up his time to continue to drop quoteworthy gems about the champ.
