Lt. Gov. Cox on Medicaid, Count My Vote and John Swallow (Video)

Cox says the biggest difference between being a part-time legislator and a full-time member of the executive branch is the amount and volume of work.

He also takes a good-natured shot at his former colleagues.

“I went from thinking most of the 104 people in the Legislature were brilliant, and now I know that none of them know what they’re doing,” he says with a laugh.

“I used to be worried about my bills and legislation, and now I’m worried about 1,200 possible bills and what they’ll do for the state.”
