Old Guvs Rule
June 10, 2010 - by
Tuesday’s primaries across the county were good for women candidates. And old governors didn’t do too badly.
California Democrats nominated Jerry Brown for governor again. Brown, 72, served as governor from 1975-1983.
Iowa Republicans nominated Terry Branstad for a return engagement. Branstad, 63, was governor from 1983-1999.
Both were fellow governors with Jim Hunt. Hunt, 73, was governor from 1977-1985 and 1993-2001.
But don’t get any ideas.
