Del. Walker Won’t Seek Reelection or Run For Any Other Office This Year

Del. Jay Walker (D-Prince George’s), a senior House member who had been seriously contemplating a run for state Senate this year, said Tuesday that he plans to step away from politics when his term ends in early January. “It’s been a good run,” Walker told Maryland Matters. The 50-year-old lawmaker, a former professional football player and TV sports analyst, brought a dash of celebrity to the House when he was elected in 2006.
