Former Sen. John Edwards plans to visit Des Moines on Dec. 28 to hold what aides to the Democrat are calling a "special town hall."

Edwards, who ran for the 2004 presidential nomination before accepting the vice presidential nomination, is weighing a second White House bid and planned to announce his candidacy before the end of the year, according to press reports.

Edwards plans to hold his Iowa event at 5 p.m. at the Iowa Historical Building, 600 E. Locust St.

Iowa is scheduled to host the lead-off presidential caucuses for the 2008 presidential nomination in 2008.
