Crist Gets In
Florida Gov. Charlie Crist will announce tomorrow that he is running for the U.S. Senate, raising Republican expectations of holding onto that seat.
As this Politico post notes, Crist will have to overcome conservative skepticism as expressed by the candidacy of former state House Speaker Marco Rubio. Crist will immediately garner most of the party endorsements worth having, however, with speculation centering on which way former Gov. Jeb Bush will throw his weight.
GOVERNING Politics is the place for news and analysis on campaigns and elections. If there's a ballot measure in California, a legislative election in Alabama, a mayoral election in Anchorage or a governor's race in Rhode Island, GOVERNING Politics probably is writing about it. We love everything about state and local politics, from polls and campaign ads to policy debates and demographic trends.
