WASHINGTON — Governor Romney will formally announce his candidacy for president next week in Michigan, his native state and an important early test for the GOP nomination, campaign aides said yesterday.

The former one-term Massachusetts governor will make his announcement February 13, and then will visit Iowa, New Hampshire, and South Carolina — the first states to hold 2008 contests.

He will return to Boston two days later, where he will hold what his campaign is calling “a unity event” with supporters, aides said. They spoke on the condition of anonymity because the plans were not public.
