Yes, i know he is the Gov. But he took it when Bush went to white white house and wasnt actually elected as Gov, right?

This time We can vote for him, and those who run against him cant say he wasnt elected. heheh

Perry took over as Gov. after Bush won in 2000, but he did have to run for election in his own right in 2002. He won overwhelmingly.

He is elected. He ran against Sanchez and won.

Perry took office at the end of 2000, and finished Bush's second term. Perry won election on his own in 2002, and would be up for reelection in 2006

You can say that he was elected governor in 1998. By then, everyone knew that Gov. Bush was going to run for president and that the lieutenant gov. would be the (at that time) interim governor.

No he was elected in the last statewide election in 2002. He has two years remaining on his current term.
