Downs to step down as Biereland lieutenant governor

BROOKINGS--Biereland's lieutenant governor, Ashton Downs (N), will leave her post to join the Menuhaeo administration, sources close the situation say.

Downs will accept an offer from President Brenton Menuhaeo to serve as the first Director of Consumer Affairs, according to Mavocke Capitol newspaper.

She has not officially announced her resignation, but Biereland Gov. San Bartholomew (N) is aware she will be departing.

There is no official word yet on who Bartholomew will appoint to replace Downs, although former Brookings mayor Steve Pottomeaux and former Federal Sen. Steve Kolotano (N) are likely candidates.
