ORIGINAL: subrob1967 I really want to see Jerry Brown win, I can't wait to see how a state handles bankruptcy. In 1974, Brown was elected Governor of California, succeeding the Republican Governor Ronald Reagan, who was retiring from office after serving two terms, and who had become governor after defeating Brown's father, Edmund G. "Pat" Brown, Sr., in the 1966 election. Jerry Brown took office on January 6, 1975. Upon taking office, Brown gained a reputation as a fiscal conservative. The American Conservative noted he was "much more of a fiscal conservative than Governor Reagan." His fiscal restraint resulted in one of the biggest budget surpluses in state history.
