AGP Executive Report
Last update: 11 hours agoGovernment Transition: Outgoing Gov. Lou Leon Guerrero has named chief of staff Jon Junior Calvo to coordinate the handover to governor-elect Tony Ada and his incoming administration, which takes office in January. Election Fallout: Republicans won the governorship and a legislative majority; voters also elected Phillip James Tydingco as attorney general and rejected a constitutional convention question. Seabed Mining: NOAA says more than 95% of Guam and CNMI’s ocean floor has been mapped, information that could support mineral lease sales. Chamorro advocates object to the federal review and want the proposed sale suspended, while a pending court ruling on a similar American Samoa lease could affect the Marianas sale planned for Dec. 16, about 47 miles from Guam. Population Outlook: New Census projections say Guam’s population could fall 38% by 2100, driven by declining fertility and outmigration.
