Rick Scott Wins Florida Governor Race

TALLAHASEE, Florida -- Florida Governor Rick Scott was re-elected last night, beating former Governor Charlie Crist by 48% to 47%.   

"It’s time to put all the division behind us, it’s time to come together," Scott said in a statement on his campaign website. 

"Forget all the partisanship.  Florida is on a mission – and that mission is to keep growing, and to become the very best place in the world to raise a family, to get a good paying job, to make a career, and build a great life. We have made great strides in the past four years, but now is not the time to let up or rest on our laurels. Now is the time to charge boldly ahead."
