In July 2007, Thornburgh announced his intentions to explore a run for governor of Kansas in 2010 by appointing a state treasurer, which would allow him to begin raising money:
"This is a game in which timing is everything. The time feels right for us right now, in that we've got great support around the state of Kansas", Thornburgh said.
In order to run for governor, he resigned as Secretary of State of Kansas on February 15, 2010.
After polling showed him losing the Republican primary to other candidates, Thornburgh dropped out of the race in June 2009.
