Lexington, KY – Kentucky Agriculture commissioner Richie Farmer says a run for Kentucky governor is "certainly a very real possibility." Farmer, along with several other state officials, accompanied Governor Steve Beshear for a bill signing today at the Kentucky Horse Park. Beshear, a democrat. has already announced his intention to seek a second term. Farmer would run as a GOP candidate. Reporters also asked Farmer about seeking the secretary of state position.
"Well I mean all those things are possibilities, but as I said I really haven't made that decision and it's really something that all those things I'll factor into my decision making process, but family first."
Farmer and his wife have three young sons. Farmer indicated he is not interested in running as a lieutenant governor candidate.
