Matt Schultz wont run for the Senate in Iowa

Iowa Secretary of State Matt Schultz announced Wednesday that he won't be a candidate for the Senate in 2014, becoming the latest Republican to pass on a bid for retiring Democratic Sen. Tom Harkin's seat.

In a tweet, Schultz said he intends to run for reelection.

Schultz joins a host of Republicans who have ruled themselves out. Reps. Steve King and Tom Latham have said no, as have Agriculture Secretary Bill Northey and Lt. Gov. Kim Reynolds.
