The former Mayor of Woonsocket, Lisa Baldelli- Hunt says she considered a run for the state legislature but is backing away from a run at this time.
The 62 year old Baldelli- Hunt will undergo heart surgery this summer.

The former mayor said she looked forward to helping others in the future.
She did not rule out a future run for a political office.
