Wynn is retiring, effective June.
Nominally, the reason given is that he wants to give Edwards a leg up on the general, that she does not need, but I don't buy that.
My guess is that either he wants to get a running start on his lucrative lobbying gig, or he is doing this as a way to shaft either Donna Edwards or his constituents.
My suggestion would for O'Malley to call a special election on the same day as the general. That way Edwards has a seniority edge on the rest of the 2009 Freshman class.
