From The Hill:
According to three well-placed Republican sources, former Rep. Richard Pombo (R-Calif.) â who lost his seat amid ethics allegations â has called on longtime friend Doolittle to not seek reelection in the interest of keeping the district a GOP stronghold. In the last Congress, Pombo was a panel chairman while Doolittle was a member of GOP leadership.
Pombo could not be reached for comment.
