Bill McCollum Has No Plans for a Rematch Against Rick Scott

Submitted by Anonymous on May 30, 2013 - 3:50pm

The Tampa Bay Times is reporting that former Attorney General Bill McCollum has closed the door to challenging Gov. Rick Scott in the Republican primaries next year. Scott defeated McCollum in a close and bitter contest.

Still, McCollum, who was very active in helping Newt Gingrichs presidential bid in Florida in 2012, wouldn't be surprised if another candidate challenges Scott in the primaries.

After losing the primary in 2010, McCollum refused to endorse Scott who went on to win the closest gubernatorial race in Florida history.
