Dean Heller will run for US Senate in 2012 - Las Vegas Clark County Elections 2010 | Examiner.com


Sources close to Dean Heller have told the Nevada News Bureau that the Congressman will seek the US Senate seat currently held by Senator John Ensign who recently announced that he will retire and not run for re-election in 2012.

While Heller has yet to make a formal announcement his release of an internal poll last month which showed him beating all Democratic opponents in a General Election indicated that he has a strong desire to run. And now that Ensign has pulled out, the job of winning the GOP primary has been made much easier for him and would allow him to focus most of his campaign contributions against his opponent during the run for the General Election.
