Spessard Holland

Holland in 1946 Spessard Lindsey Holland (July 10, 1892 – November 6, 1971) was an American lawyer and politician. He served as the 28th governor of Florida from 1941 to 1945, and later as a U.S. senator for Florida from 1946 to 1971. He was the first person born in Florida to serve as governor and U.S. senator for the state. While serving as a U.S. senator he would notably introduce the 24th Amendment.

During his tenure as governor, he was mainly preoccupied with the preparations for World War II and the actual war itself. With the death of U.S. senator Charles O. Andrews he was appointed by Governor Millard F. Caldwell on September 25, 1946, to serve out the rest of his term which was set to expire the following January. However, he was reelected in 1946 and continued to seek reelection during every opportunity available serving as a senator until he retired in January 1971. Provided by Wikipedia
