"Scott is in. Are
you? Join our team today," Walker said in a tweet accompanied by
an image of him waving with the headline: "Scott Walker is
running for president. Join the team."
The tweet was later deleted.
It was unclear why Walker's tweet was inadvertently sent. A
Twitter representative said in an emailed statement, "We're
looking into today's issue, and we've determined the Walker team
was not at fault."
Walker, a two-term governor of Wisconsin, is to announce his bid
for the Republican presidential nomination on Monday in
Waukesha, Wisconsin.
The Walker team responded to the accident by saying, "Stay tuned
for Governor Walker's announcement on Monday at 5pm CT."
