Sink Makes It Official
Alex Sink, Florida's CFO and the expected Democratic nominee to succeed Gov. Charlie Crist, has made her race official. From her statement:
Today, I'm announcing I will be a candidate for Governor of Florida in the November 2010 election, and put my business experience and know-how to work restoring our economy.
And, as Florida's CFO, I'll continue using my business experience to cut wasteful spending, crack down on financial fraud and reform state contracts.
For too long, we've had to tolerate a state government that puts playing politics ahead of helping families. Together, we can change all that, and give our state a fresh start.
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.
