Texas Rep. Gonzales ends reelection bid following affair admission

Texas Republican Rep. Tony Gonzales said he will not seek reelection after admitting to an affair with a former staffer who died by self-immolation. He will continue to serve the remainder of this Congress, with a May 26 runoff against Brandon Herrera looming. The move comes as House GOP leaders pressed him to withdraw and the House Ethics Committee opened an investigation into potential sexual misconduct and improper favoritism related to his congressional office.
