Florida Governor's race could be historic

ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) - The outcome in Florida's brutal and expensive race for governor is likely to be historic regardless of what happens on Election Day.

Incumbent Republican Gov. Rick Scott and Republican-turned-Democrat Charlie Crist have been locked in a tight race for weeks now. Voters head to the polls Tuesday.

Scott is trying to become the second GOP governor ever in state history to win re-election. If Scott wins, it would be remarkable since his approval ratings have never been over 50 percent.

A Crist win would be just as historic since it involves a former governor taking back his old job after switching parties.
