By The Editorial Advisory Board Kansas Secretary of Commerce David Toland is a solid, sensible choice to become our state’s new lieutenant governor. “No one works harder or has more energy than Secretary Toland and we are lucky to have him as a state,” Gov. Laura Kelly said while announcing her pick to replace Lynn Rogers, who will become state treasurer. “We are lucky that he (Toland) is willing to accept this new assignment. I look forward to having him by my side as we continue our efforts to keep Kansans safe and healthy, and our economy thrive.” Toland is younger, which is important when surveying the increasingly gray countenance of Kansas leaders. He follows in the steps of other lieutenant governors, under Govs. Graves and Sebelius, who also served as commerce secretary.
