George Pataki finished his third term as New York governor at the end of 2006, and speculation soon began that he might have his eye on higher office.
Now, nine years later, Mr. Pataki appears on the verge of running. On May 28 in Exeter, N.H., he will announce his decision, according to his super-PAC, called "We the People, not Washington."
Pataki has already made multiple trips to New Hampshire, home of the first primary, and is positioning himself as a Washington outsider who wants to reduce the size of government.
