Martin Sabo to retire

An interesting set of races in Minnesota just got more interesting as CD 5's seat in congress has opened up. Martin Sabo served 14 terms as a DFLer. I don't expect any of the notable Independence Party members in the district such as Jack Uldrich or Jim Moore to jump in the race, but it is probably the parties strongest district so I would expect someone with some credibility to jump in for the IP, Booker Hodges isn't a bad bet.
