Pawlenty to make 3rd trip to New Hampshire

Republican Tim Pawlenty is headed to New Hampshire again, marking his third trip since he began positioning himself for a possible 2012 presidential run.

The Minnesota governor announced the visit on his Facebook page on Tuesday.

New Hampshire holds the nation's first presidential primary, a key step in the nominating process for presidential candidates. Pawlenty is scheduled to speak to the Strafford County Republican Committee at an annual picnic in Dover on July 10.

Pawlenty visited New Hampshire in March and December after deciding last year that he wouldn't seek a third term as governor and starting a national fundraising committee. He has said he will reveal his future plans early next year.
