Scott Brown Files for New Hampshire Senate Run

After months of will-he-or-won’t-he-but-he-probably-will, former U.S. Senator from Massachusetts Scott Brown filed Wednesday morning to run in the GOP primary for U.S. Senator from New Hampshire.

Brown upset Martha Coakley in a special election in 2010 to replace the late Ted Kennedy, and served until he was defeated by Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-MA). He has recently been crab-walking into New Hampshire to set up a possible Senate run, a (literal) move many have decried as carpetbagging.

“I’m sure you’ve all heard this before, but Sen. Mikulski said last week in the caucus that the Constitution guarantees every state two senators, but the Constitution does not guarantee every senator two states,” Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV) said recently at Brown’s expense.

If he secures his party’s nomination, he will face incumbent Jeanne Shaheen in the general.
