After months of speculation, Sen. Mark Warner (D-VA) announced he ”
won’t seek another term as governor, meaning whatever his political
future holds is likely be oriented around Washington rather than the
State Capitol,” the Virginian Pilot reports.
Said Warner: “I loved being Governor, but I have a different job now — and it’s here, in the United States Senate.”
Warner’s decision effectively makes
Terry McAuliffe the likely Democratic frontrunner for the 2013
gubernatorial nomination.
