Scott Gets GOP Nomination for Fla. Governor

Florida's Republican voters choose wealthy newcomer Rick Scott over career public servant Bill McCollum as their candidate for governor.

Scott had 46 percent of the vote and McCollum 43 percent with 92 percent of precincts reporting Tuesday night.

The 57-year-old Scott won despite repeated questions about his leadership of the hospital conglomerate Columbia/HCA. It paid a record fine for Medicare fraud.

Scott will face Democrat Alex Sink in the Nov. 2 general election.
