Rick Scott Spends $50 Million To Win Florida GOP Governor Nomination

Rick Scott bested Florida Attorney General Bill McCollum to get the Republican nomination for governor of Florida, and the price tag is only $50 million.

The former hospital executive, whose company paid the largest set of Medicare fines and penalties in history — $1.7 billion — also declared his net worth to be $219 million ($218,589,004 to be exact), according to his financial disclosure form.

With Meg Whitman spending $100 million to get the party’s nomination for governor in California and Linda McMahon’s $22 million price tag in Connecticut, we are getting the best candidates money can buy.
