Senator Scott Martin has suspended his campaign for governor of Pennsylvania due to serious injuries suffered last month. Martin, who visited Indiana In the Morning on WCCS in December to boost his campaign, suffered the injury on the eve of a January 12th candidates’ debate in New Castle.
In his announcement yesterday, the Lancaster County Republican wrote “The injuries to my leg were beyond a simple broken bone and included a severing of numerous ligaments and tendons in my ankle that are going to require greater and longer rehabilitation than I originally hoped would be necessary. Continuing to campaign in the coming months would put my future ability to walk without impediment in danger, which is something I cannot do to my own family.”
Martin writes that he will continue his work in the State Senate.
