Lawson named to Presidential Primary Selection Committee


Our ex-state senator Al Lawson has a new part-time job.
Lawson, a Democrat, was named by Governor Rick Scott to the Presidential Primary Selection Committee.
Lawson will join 2 other democrats and 6 republicans later this week to hash out when Florida will hold its presidential preference primary.
It’s a pretty big decision and one that could have an impact nationally.
There is pressure in Florida to move its primary date up – its been tentatively set for Jan. 31st.
If that stays it would violate the rules of the Republican National Committee which only allows Iowa, New Hampshire, Nevada and South Carolina to hold their primaries before March 6th.
