Former State Sen. John Lehman Might Run Against Wanggaard Again

An announcement is expected on Tues., Jan. 31, 2012.

There's been some banter over the past few weeks about who will run against State Sen. Van Wanggaard if there's a recall election later this year.

Looks like we might get an answer on Tues., Jan. 31 when former State Sen. John Lehman makes an announcement about his candidacy.

Wanggaard challenged Lehman in 2010 and came out the winner with about 53 percent of the vote. Earlier this month, supporters collected 24,000 signatures to recall Wanggaard, well over the 15,000 needed to trigger an election.
