Unfortunately, I do not realistically expect the partisanship of recent years in the Senate to change over the short term.... So at this stage of my tenure in public service, I have concluded that I am not prepared to commit myself to an additional six years in the Senate, which is what a fourth term would entail.
The Washington Post suggests that with an open seat election the Democrats will be favored to take the seat this November.
