Kim Reynolds intends to run for governor of Iowa next year.
Reynolds ascended to the governor's chair from her post as lieutenant governor last month, replacing Terry Branstad after his confirmation as U.S. ambassador to China. She'd been widely expected to run but had yet to make a formal announcement.
A news release from her campaign organization said this Thursday: "The Governor and Lt. Governor intend to be candidates for Governor and Lt. Governor in 2018."
