JEFFERSON CITY - Lt. Governor Peter Kinder hopes to announce his plans for Governor in the upcoming weeks.

In a statement hours after Governor Matt Blunt said he is not running for re-election, Kinder said he hopes to formally announce his plans "in the coming weeks."

Kinder released this statement:

"As Lt. Governor and President Pro Tem I have brought fundamental change to state government. I have served as a change agent my entire career and look forward to continuing my positive leadership. Missourians deserve a strong economy to create new higher paying jobs, a world class education, and affordable and accessible health care. I am the right person to deliver the positive change Missourians deserve.

I am heartened by the outpouring of support and I will formally announce my plans for Governor in the coming weeks."
