Former Sen. Rick Santorum, who has been exploring a bid for president, is set to officially declare his candidacy in two weeks.
The Des Moines Register reports:
Pennsylvania Republican Rick Santorum is making plans to throw his hat into the presidential ring and will make a big announcement about his plans in two weeks, an aide told The Des Moines Register this morning.
Santorum, 53, a former two-term senator, will reveal his plans the week of June 5, but his staff said they’re still working out the details on which state he’ll choose for his launching pad.
As the Register notes, Santorum has paid 16 visits to New Hampshire, 15 to Iowa, and 14 to South Carolina. So it’s anybody’s guess which state Santorum will pick to officially get in the mix.
