St. Pete Times: Scott, open your books

The editorial board of the St. Petersburg Times wants GOP candidate for governor Rick Scott to open his books and let the public know about his lawsuits and the settlements.

“For months (Scott) has told voters his business record makes him the most qualified candidate for governor. Now that his record is under scrutiny, he has an obligation to disclose more, not less. Candor, not defensiveness, is what is required of public servants.”

Well done, St. Pete Times. Well done.

Read editorial.
