Cajun strategist hired as Democrats' executive director
Former Louisiana Democratic Party executive director Scott Arceneaux has been hired as the Florida Democratic Party's new executive director. Arceneaux most recently worked on the Creigh Deeds campaign in Virginia and was Chris Dodd's political director in the presidential campaign.
"I'm extremely excited about coming to Florida and the opportunities we have for 2010. It's going to be ground zero," Arceneaux told Buzz.
"Scott's proven record of success and strong leadership will help Florida Democrats end the status quo and move our state forward. I am excited to work with chair Karen Thurman and her team to bring change to Florida," said CFO Alex Sink.
"The Florida Democratic Party is in the best shape it has been in years," said U.S. Sen. Bill Nelson. "We won't miss a beat with Scott."
