Miner Will Not Seek Fourth Term in State Senate.

State Senator Craig Miner (R-Litchfield) announced Thursday he will not run for a fourth term in the 30th State Senate District. Miner was elected to serve the 14-town district in the northwest region of the state in 2016.

Before serving in the Senate, Miner was a member of the House of Representatives for 16 years. He was Litchfield’s first selectman for a decade. He points out in his announcement that he has spent more than half of his adult life in public office.

The seat was held for many years by the late and beloved Dell Eads, the last Republican to serve as the President Pro Tem of the Senate.
