Another hat is into the ring for the 2010 Georgia governor’s race. Savannah Republican state senator Eric Johnson had been in the race for Lieutenant Governor, but decided to switch races when Casey Cagle withdrew from a run for Governor. Cagle has announced he will instead seek re-election for his current Lieutenant governor seat.
Johnson will join three other Republicans already declared in the Governor’s race--Secretary of State Karen Handel, Insurance Commissioner John Oxendine, and state Representative Austin Scott.
