Glenn Nye, the former one-term congressman from Hampton Roads, has announced that he will not run in 2012 for the 2nd District seat he lost last year to Republican Rep. Scott Rigell.
The Democrat said he had received "many calls and messages urging me to run for Congress or other office in Virginia."
Nye works on foreign-affairs issues as a senior fellow at the German Marshall Fund of the United States. He also is a member of the board of directors at Vetshouse, a nonprofit organization that serves homeless veterans in Hampton Roads.
The German Marshall Fund of the U.S. describes itself as a nonpartisan American public policy and grantmaking institution dedicated to promoting better understanding and cooperation between North America and Europe.
