Governor Scott Walker will be hitting the road again next week, following his expected announcement next Monday that he’s entering the race for the Republican presidential nomination.
Walker’s campaign on Wednesday announced what it called a “Post-Announcement Primary State Blitz,” which will see Walker leaving his rally in Waukesha Monday night for an appearance in Las Vegas, Nevada on Tuesday. The governor will then make stops in South Carolina on Wednesday, New Hampshire on Thursday, and will wrap up the week with a three-day Winnebago trip through Iowa.
The tour will continue into the next week, with those stops being announced at a later date.
The Republican governor appears to be making early primary states a focus as he prepares to enter an already crowded feel of GOP candidates who are all seeking the nomination. Walker has made multiple visits to those states already this year, during a time when he said he was still considering a possible presidential run.
