Former Pennsylvania Sen. Rick Santorum, once the No. 3 Republican in the Senate, said Monday he's seeking the GOP nomination for president.
Santorum enters the race four days after former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney formally declared his candidacy and former Utah Gov. Jon Huntsman and Minnesota Rep. Michele Bachmann are strongly weighing bids.
Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich, former Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty and businessman Herman Cain are already in a race that has seen some of its biggest names decide against bids. Former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee, Mississippi Gov. Haley Barbour, Gov. Mitch Daniels of Indiana and entrepreneur-entertainer Donald Trump have said they're not running.
There also has been speculation that former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani, who sought the nomination in 2008, is considering making another run.
