Humble Congressman Ted Poe, who at one time represented Jefferson County, does not plan to seek re-election after his current term ends in 2019. Poe's office made the announcement late Tuesday. Poe is in his seventh term representing a district mostly in northern and eastern Harris County, but which also extends down into Houston's Montrose. The first Republican to represent the state's 2nd Congressional district, Poe was treated last year for leukemia.
