State Rep. Randy Boehning Will Not Resign

A Fargo lawmaker who sent a graphic photo of himself to another user of a gay dating website says he has no intention of leaving the Legislature.

State Rep. Randy Boehning says he’s been “getting a lot of support” from his constituents and fellow lawmakers.

The Republican says he will finish his term, which ends in three years.

Boehning says he won’t talk about the matter publicly anymore.

The 52-year-old contractor said in April that he is gay and confirmed that he sent an unsolicited photo of his penis to another man.
