Today, Florida Democratic Party Chair Allison Tant made the following statement regarding David Jolly’s entrance into the race for Florida’s 13th Congressional district:
“One year after abandoning the job the people of Pinellas County elected him to do, David Jolly has changed his mind and is returning to run in the district he argued ‘no Republican can win.’ Jolly’s lack of commitment and principle are exactly what Pinellas County residents would expect from a Washington lobbyist who is only interested in furthering his political career. Florida Democrats look forward to sending David Jolly back to K Street in November.”
