DescriptionLt. Gov. Jay Dardenne said Wednesday that he "intends" to run for governor in 2015, though he said that he is not officially launching his campaign. However, Dardenne acknowledged that he would likely be a candidate in the upcoming race when asked about it at a Women in Media luncheon in Baton Rouge.

After that meeting, Dardenne described his answer as "far short of a formal announcement."

"When I answer questions, I try to be honest with what my thinking is and what my intentions are," Dardenne said. He stressed that he is not yet putting together a campaign and did not yet have plans to formally launch that effort.
