Margo "looking at" buying in Haggerty's district

Dee Margo, CEO and chairman of JDW Insurance, said today he is looking at building a new, one-level home in the Upper Valley.
Buying a home there soon would put him inside state Rep. Pat Haggerty's district and make him eligible to challenge Haggerty in the March Republican Primary.
Rumor has long been swirling that Margo was planning to move into Haggerty's district.
Margo, who currently resides in state Rep. Paul Moreno's district, would have to plop down some dough for the home pretty soon, though. To qualify to run in Haggerty's district, he'd have to reside there for a year by the time of the general election, Nov. 4, 2008.
But Margo said he hasn't bought anything yet. He's just talking with architects and builders. The reason for the move, he added, has nothing to do with politics.
"It's not really news," he said.
The family's longtime housekeeper is crippled, and he said it would be easier for her to get around in a one-level home than in the Margo's current three-level home.
That's a change from last month, when Margo said the family wasn't looking to move.
Asked whether he plans to run against Haggerty, Margo said, "not at this juncture."
Asked whether those plans could change, he said, "You never know."
