Mitt Romney is running for the U.S. Senate in Utah.
He announced his campaign in a video posted online Friday.
"I have decided to run for United States Senate because I believe I can help bring Utah's values and Utah's lessons to Washington," Romney said.
Romney's announcement isn't exactly a surprise. Earlier this month, he tweeted that he'd be making an announcement Feb. 15 about the Senate race in Utah.
As we previously reported, Romney is pretty popular in the deep-red state. And he's not expected to face stiff competition.
Romney is looking to replace Sen. Orrin Hatch, who announced earlier this year he's not running for re-election.
