MINNEAPOLIS (AP) - Iron Range lawmaker Tom Rukavina is moving closer to joining the crowded DFL field of candidates for Minnesota governor.
Rukavina has filed paperwork allowing him to explore running.
The 12-term state representative from the Iron Range town of Virginia notes the geographic tilt among the Democratic contenders. He says he'll decide whether to run by early September.
Another state representative, Democrat Paul Thissen of Minneapolis, has formalized his campaign for governor. Eight Democrats have so far announced and at least three others are contemplating campaigns.
Republican Gov. Tim Pawlenty says he's not running for re-election next year.
