Sarah Palin's decision to resign as Alaska governor was primarily prompted by her concern over the large sums of money being spent on ethics investigations into her background, Alaska's Lt. Gov. Sean Parnell said on Sunday.
Ms. Palin on Friday announced that she would not run for reelection and would step down 18 months before her term ends. The decision has prompted many to question whether Ms. Palin, who was Sen. John McCain's 2008 vice-presidential running mate, is considering a bid for the White House in 2012.
