Description |
Because the new Senate session begins a week before the Governor takes office, Donald DiFrancesco was no longer Governor when his State Senate term lapsed.
A 20 - 20 partisan split in the State Senate led to two Acting Governors in that period of time. In a pre-arranged deal with Democratic leader Dick Codey, GOP Senate Co-President John Bennett became governor on noon of January 8, 2002, and served until the stroke of midnight of January 11th.
