A new Democratic candidate for governor

The Nashville Post is reporting that Sen. Roy Herron, a Democrat from the northwest part of the state, has indicated that he will enter the gubernatorial race.

We know a good blogger who lives in Herron's district, and she will be providing further updates as they become available.

The elections for this office will take place in August (primary) and November (general) of 2010. Governor Phil Bredesen is prevented by law from seeking a third term.

Here's a sketch of how the candidate lists are lining up. I'll be filling out this information with links to campaign sites, social media pages, contributions, issue positions, and lots more. Stay tuned.

Democrats
Sen. Andy Berke?
Ward Cammack
Sen. Roy Herron
Kim McMillan
Mike McWherter?

Republicans
