Politicians in every office make promises to their constituents.  Florida Governor Rick Scott is no different.

One his promises:  A higher education system focused “on the following goals that will give Florida a competitive edge over other states:  Be number one in university and college affordability."

PolitiFact Florida took a look at the governor’s work so far and rated this promise IN THE WORKS on the Scott-O-Meter.

Writer Joshua Gillin said there has actually been a change in Florida’s ranking.

“Florida is fourth from the top in low public tuition,” Gillin said.

The three states ahead of Florida include:

1.  Wyoming.

2.  New Mexico

3.  Montana

It is for that reason, Governor Scott’s promise received a rating of IN THE WORKS.
