governor

Name one other office in America that’s not decided by who gets the most votes — from state governor down to first-grade class president.

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis ordered state officials to schedule a special election to fill Gaetz’s seat last week.

The state board was appointed by the governor and currently includes a Democratic majority.

In 2016, after voters narrowly ousted Republican Gov. Pat McCrory, the lame-duck governor filed thousands of baseless challenges, almost all of which were dismissed.

It drastically limits the attorney general’s power and other executive branch officials, as well as curtailing the governor’s constitutional authority to appoint judges.
