Florida Lieutenant Governor Vacancy At Eight Months

November 13, 2013

Gov. Rick Scott gave little indication Tuesday about how the search for a lieutenant governor is proceeding, as the vacancy in the position hit eight months.

“I’m still reviewing it,” Scott said. “Look, there’s a lot of great people around the state that could be great at lieutenant governor, and so we’re still going through the process.”

Former Lt. Gov. Jennifer Carroll stepped down March 12. If Scott were unable to fulfill his duties before a lieutenant governor is named, Attorney General Pam Bondi would take over as governor.

    Anyone wonder why this is?

    I feel that Miz Pamela Bondi would do well sitting in the Lt Governors office.

    As we used to say in the Air Force, promoveatur ut amoveatur.

    Bondi’d be a visual improvement, might even be a better governor — if that is possible.

    David for aesthetics and ethics
    and proper priorities

    I am ashamed to say that I didn’t even know who our lt. Governor was.
