Benson is up for healthcare position

   November 27, 2006

thinkingRumors persist that newly re-elected state rep. Holly Benson is being promoted to head a statewide healthcare agency. I’m trying to get confirmation on which one.

If she’s appointed, then we will have a special election for her seat asap. A quick tunraround means anyone could walk away with the seat – must have solid name recognition and the ability to raise campaign bucks fast. There’s enough time for a darkhorse candidate to build the necessary name recognition and gather enough cash to mount a serious campaign.
