As we predicted yesterday, Governor Scott today will appoint Mike Fasano the next Tax Collector for Pasco County.
Fasano must resign his seat in the Florida House before Scott makes the appointment.
A senior GOP operative close to both Scott and legislative leadership e-mailed me on Friday to say that Scott would soon be appointing Fasano.
Another positive sign for Fasano is the support he’s receiving from Pasco County voters. According to a new survey from St. Pete Polls, 38% of Pasco voters want Gov. Scott to appoint Fasano as Tax Collector; 19% are opposed to the idea, while 44% are unsure.
