Oh, the suspense.
Candidates and community members alike will soon find out who will be sworn in on Dr. Seuss' "Green Eggs and Ham" as the new Lutz Guv'na. The race for the honorary annual title is near the finish line, with the decision coming during Lutz's July 4 parade.
The long-running faux-political race is lighthearted and fun, full of zany promises. But there is a serious side, too, event coordinator Eleanor Cecil told Patch.com. The winner is the one who raises the most money for Lutz-area nonprofits.
“This is really giving back to the community,” Cecil had said.
Here is a the list of the four candidates with links to articles on each:
