Lisa Madigan to run for re-election

Lisa Madigan won’t be running for governor or senator. At 2 p.m. she’ll announce that she’s going to run for re-election as attorney general.

Robin Ziegler, a spokeswoman for Madigan, called me a while ago to let me know. The news has already been posted on the Chicago Tribune’s Web site and some others.

I have privately told my colleagues that I thought she would run for re-election. It was a hunch and it looks like it was right.

Ziegler said Madigan will call me later this afternoon after the press conference. I’ll post an update then.
