Biography

Kenneth W. Detzner (born September 18, 1952) is an American politician. He is the current Secretary of State of Florida.

Career

Detzner was a registered Democrat until 1984, when he changed his registration to Republican. He worked as a lobbyist for the Florida Beer Wholesalers Association. He served as chief of staff to James C. Smith, then the Secretary of State of Florida, from 2002 to 2003. Following Jeb Bush's reelection as Governor of Florida in the 2002 election, he appointed Detzner as interim Secretary of State, prior to Glenda Hood's swearing in.

Kurt S. Browning, the Secretary of State, announced his resignation in January 2012 to run for Pasco County School Superintendent. Rick Scott, the Governor of Florida, appointed Detzner to the position to succeed him on January 18, 2012, by Governor Rick Scott, and confirmed by the Florida State Senate in late February.

As Secretary of State, Detzner continued a voter purge begun by Browning. The United States Department of Justice intervened to stop the purge.
