Two GOP state senators are joining an already crowded field of declared or potential candidates for governor.
Sen. Sen. David Hann of Eden Prairie says he is exploring a run and filed paperwork with state regulators on Tuesday.
Sen. Mike Jungbauer of East Bethel announced his candidacy on Wednesday.
Both are two-term state senators.
Hann says the state needs to hold down spending and cut taxes. He works as a business process consultant and served in the Vietnam war.
Jungbauer says Minnesota should prepare for big changes in the energy field. He works at an engineering company and is an ordained minister.
