Citing business reasons, Chad Whitefield announced today he won't run for a state Senate seat after all.

Whitefield stepped down last month from a post on the Floyd County Commission to seek what will be the vacant Senate District 52 seat.

The district covers all of Floyd and parts of Chattooga, Gordon and Bartow counties.
