From The Town Talk:
Louisiana Secretary of State Jay Dardenne has made it official: He will run for lieutenant governor in the fall.
Dardenne said Friday he will run for the position being vacated by Mitch Landrieu, who was recently elected mayor of New Orleans and will take office in May.
A list of politicians has expressed interest in the lieutenant governor’s job, though Dardenne is among the first to confirm a plan to run. Dardenne, a Republican, says he’s already been raising campaign cash and has several fundraising events planned in the coming weeks.
