Ending months of speculation, Hillsborough County Clerk of the Circuit Court Pat Frank confirmed Thursday that she will run for another term.
Frank is one of the few Democrats to hold a countywide post in Hillsborough and a veteran of many elected positions, including the School Board, County Commission and the Legislature.
After going through heart surgery in October and breaking a couple of pelvic bones recently, the 82-year-old Frank said she's ready for another four years. She is finishing her second term as clerk of courts.
"I feel great," Frank said. "I'm back in shape and ready to go."
