Her appointment doesn't seem to be attracting much controversy, so I do think that's a fair assumption. If the Lieutenant Governor steps up and becomes governor, there's a vacancy for Lieutenant governor.

So I have to assume I don't have any inside knowledge of this, but I have to assume Lieutenant Governor Roden has already given this some thought. (08:20–08:29)
