In not confirming a run for lieutenant governor, Naughton wrote he is “not trying to split hairs or play with language here,” and would notify The Item “if and when” he was prepared to make a formal announcement.

Naughton Air Jordan 13 has denied the rumor that he is running for lieutenant governor on multiple occasions to The Item, Air Jordan 2010 the last time at the Lancaster Nashua River Festival last month, saying he had not made a decision about any statewide run, and would not until the fall.

Naughton, who is House chairman of the joint committee on public safety and homeland security, has been holding hearings across the state on gun safety. He has been appearing on radio and TV broadcasts and increasing his profile outside his legislative district.

With fellow Democrat, Steven Kerrigan, of Lancaster, Air Jordan 6s already declared a candidate Air Jordan Fusion 5 for lieutenant governor, it sets up a possible rematch between the two from the 2008 election. In that Air Jordan 12s race, Naughton, the incumbent, defeated challenger Kerrigan in the Democratic primary for the House seat.
