WASHINGTON - Maryland Congressman Albert Wynn
says he's leaving Congress before his term ends to
take a job at a Washington law firm.
The Democrat was defeated in a primary election last
month. He said in a statement Thursday that he'd leave
Congress in June to enter "another phase of my life."
The eight-term incumbent was soundly defeated by
activist Donna Edwards in the primary for Maryland's
heavily Democratic 4th District.
Wynn says his resignation will allow for a special
election that would give Edwards more time for
transition into office. Edwards is favored to win the
general election.
