Former Colorado Lt. Gov. Jane Norton said Tuesday she has formed an exploratory committee for a possible U.S. Senate race in 2010.

In a statement, Norton said she plans to announce whether she’ll run next week, “after talking to supporters around the state.”
Norton, a Grand Junction native, currently serves as executive director of the Denver Police Foundation and lives in Arapahoe County.
