From Luke Malek's Facebook wall (with his permission):

"For those who have not heard, Tara has taken a new job as a Special Assistant United States Attorney for Canyon County, and will be commuting to Boise on a weekly basis. This is an amazing opportunity she has earned, and I am proud to be married to a talented, strong professional. While it will be difficult being apart during weekdays, we are in awe of how blessed we are to be able to pursue life passionately."

DFO: Luke responded to a Huckleberries Online email to say that he plans to run for re-election next spring. Thoughts?
