MONTPELIER -- Vermont Lt. Governor Brian Dubie announced today that he will be a candidate for governor of Vermont in 2010.

Dubie said he needed to take the past few weeks to weigh carefully whether to run.
"At the end if that weighing, the right thing for me to do was to seek the office of governor of Vermont.

"This decision isn't made in a vacuum," he said, pointing to a photograph of his wife and four children. "We had a spirited conversation. It took a while, but everyone in the family feels it is the right thing to do."

Lt. Governor Dubie’s statement comes roughly five weeks after Governor Jim Douglas’ announcement that he would not seek a fifth term.
