Palm Beach County’s Sharon Bock, who started calling the Clerk of Courts job “Clerk and Comptroller” to emphasize its financial oversignt responsibilities, says she’s fielded calls from Democrats around Florida asking her to consider running for state Chief Financial Officer now that incumbent Alex Sink is running for governor.

Bock has flatly ruled out such a run in the past. She still calls it highly unlikely, but today said she’ll at least consider it.

“Would I think about it? Sure. What are the chances? Very, very slim. But because I have been asked to think about it, I certainly will,” said Bock, who was elected in 2004 and reelected last year.

Bock said she’d have a difficult time running statewide, saying she’s only been a “one-county, low-ballot race-runner.”
