Torricelli is going to retire and get to keep 6 million in campaign donations. Senators no longer get to keep their unused campaign funds when they retire. They can donate them to other federal office seekers or donate them to their party.
Also, Torricelli as far as I have heard is not retiring. He is only dropping out of his reelection campaign. He can keep those funds and use them for a later election campaign.

I hope you are right about the money. I heard on local radio that he would get to keep it, but I don't think the host of this particular show is all that up on current law.
