Gov. Scott no longer uses state email, aide says



(Paid subscription article)

"The governor now only uses email to communicate with family," his deputy communications director John Tupps said.

The Orlando Sentinel raised the question as other top public officials — notably Democratic presidential prospect Hillary Clinton — faced criticism over their email practices. The former secretary of state set up a private server for both her government and personal emails.

Scott ran into controversy last fall when The Associated Press revealed that, contrary to his previous statements, he was using a private email account to conduct state business and had failed to include some of those emails in the public record.

At that point, his office said he would stop using private email accounts for public business.
