State officials urged abolition of elective offices
In Sacramento legislative debates, analyst Alan Post proposed abolishing most elective state executive offices except governor and lieutenant governor. He cited inefficiency and scandals in the controller, treasurer, secretary of state, board of equalization, superintendent of public instruction, and attorney general. The plan aims to centralize control under the governor’s reorganizational study as the Assembly panel weighed Gov. Brown’s reform proposal. Political friction and committee positions influenced the motion, with smokers vs nonsmokers notes appearing in related discussions.
