Santorum launches Republican bid for White House

WASHINGTON, June 6 (Reuters) – Former U.S. Senator Rick Santorum launched a long-shot Republican bid for president on Monday, pledging an unflinching commitment to conservative policies, including a Medicare reform plan that has proved unpopular with voters.

“We’re going to be in this race and we’re in it to win,” Santorum told ABC’s “Good Morning America” in an interview from his home state of Pennsylvania.

In today’s story it was stated that he launched it FROM HIS HOME STATE OF PENNSYLVANIA.

That is totally incorrect. His home state is Virgina, specifically, Leesburg. He owns a property in Pennsylvania but he does not live there.

Santorum was born in Virginia and lived in West Virginia until the age of 7, when his family moved to Pennsylvania. With the exception of a year or two of high school spent in Illinois, he lived in Pennsylvania through his boyhood, college and law school years and adult working life before being elected senator.
