It is looking more and more like Kerrey is going to run.

The former Nebraska governor registered to vote in Douglas County on Tuesday, and also inquired about what he would have to do to file for office, said David Phipps, Douglas County Election Commissioner.

Registering to vote is one crucial step in establishing residency in Nebraska, after living 12 years in New York City.

Kerrey registered to vote using the address of his sister's home in Rockbrook neighborhood in west Omaha.

Our chances of keeping the Senate look better with Kerrey deciding to run and Snowe deciding not to.

Kerrey reconsiders after turning down Senate bid
The popular two-term U.S. senator and former governor demurred on a comeback run just weeks ago. But Paul Johnson, a former campaign manager and confidant, said Kerrey called him Monday morning and told him he was taking another look and will announce a decision this week.
Should Kerrey decide to get in this time .... http://www.kansascity.com/2012/02/27/3455443/consultant-bob-kerrey-reconsidering.html
