Secretary of State Betty Ireland will not be on the 2008 ballot, for her current office or any other, she announced earlier today.
The Associated Press has the story. I note that besides being the first woman elected to West Virginia's executive branch, Ireland had won praise from would-be '08 challengers and had been touted by national GOP figures as congressional material.
Others with the story include The Charleston Gazette, the Charleston Daily Mail, MetroNews (Ireland announced her decision on Talkline) and West Virginia Media.
