Reno to Decide Soon on Fla. Gubernatorial Bid
Former U.S. Atty. Gen. Janet Reno said she will decide shortly on running for governor in her home state of Florida, where President Bush’s brother, Jeb Bush, occupies the governor’s mansion.
Speaking to reporters in Ithaca, N.Y., before delivering the convocation address at Cornell University, her alma mater, Reno said she is considering a 2002 gubernatorial candidacy “in a careful and thoughtful way.”
Reno, 62, would not set a date by which she would announce her decision, but the former Clinton administration official said it would come “as soon as possible.”
