Kansas Dem. Senator Still Mulling US Senate Bid

February 27, 2010

TOPEKA, Kan. (AP) - A Kansas state senator says he will decide in another month whether to jump into the race for the Democratic nomination for the U.S. Senate.

State Sen. David Haley of Kansas City said Saturday that the response he is getting from fellow Democrats is "very favorable."

Haley was circulating during the state party's annual Washington Days convention in Topeka. Already in the race is a former newspaper editor from the Kansas City suburb of Prairie Village, Charles Schollenberger.

Two Republicans are running - U.S. Reps. Jerry Moran and Todd Tiahrt. Incumbent U.S. Sen. Sam Brownback, a Republican, is running for governor.

Haley has been in the state senate since 2001. He ran unsuccessfully for secretary of state in 2002 and 2006.
