The older brother of Basketball Hall of Famer Larry Bird is entering the race for a seat in the Indiana Legislature.
Mark Bird announced Tuesday he’ll seek the Democratic nomination for the Indiana House seat that includes most of the city of Terre Haute. The 64-year-old Bird is a former Vigo County Council member and narrowly lost a 2015 campaign for Terre Haute mayor.
Bird is seeking to replace Democratic Rep. Clyde Kersey, who isn’t running for re-election this year after holding the seat since 1996.
