Bud Chiles Walking in Ybor on Friday
Submitted by Kevin Derby on June 10, 2010 - 1:20pm
Independent gubernatorial candidate Bud Chiles, who debuted in the first polls released since he entered the race last week, is going to be in Ybor City tomorrow taking part in a family tradition -- walking as a campaign event. Buds father, the legendary Lawton Chiles, famously walked across Florida during his unlikely -- but ultimately successful -- campaign to win a U.S. Senate seat in 1970. Walkin Lawton continued to walk across the Sunshine State to victory in two other Senate elections, as well as two more wins in gubernatorialraces.
