From The Arizona Republic:
Secretary of State Ken Bennett on Wednesday promoted his decades of experience in government as evidence that he is qualified to serve as governor if the need comes for him to replace Arizona’s top official.
He said challenger Chris Deschene’s political experience, which includes one term as a state House representative, pales in comparison. Bennett has served as a Prescott councilman and president of the state Senate and was appointed last year to the Secretary of State’s Office by Jan Brewer when she stepped in as governor to replace Janet Napolitano, who took a Cabinet post in Washington, D.C.
In Arizona, the secretary of state steps in if the governor resigns, dies or is removed from office.
