The author of this thread deserves some serious answers, instead of the flippant responses received in most of the posts.
A serious answer
If Romney established actual residency in New Hampshire for the required period of time, yes, he could run for the New Hampshire Senate seat.
However, I see this as extremely unlikely. If Obama proves to still be popular in 2010 and it turns out to be a Democratic congressional year, a state like New Hampshire could prove to be problematic for a Republican in 2010. If Romney runs there and loses, it could be very negative for his potential run for President in 2012. If Romney runs in New Hampshire, he would be seen to be simply running to further his Presidential aspirations.
So, in my view, no, Romney will not be running for the Senate from New Hampshire in 2010.
