Charles Van Zant Backs Mary Thomas to Challenge Gwen Graham

Submitted by Kevin Derby on November 17, 2015 - 1:13pm

State Rep. Charles Van Zant, R-Keystone Heights, endorsed Tallahassee attorney Mary Thomas on Tuesday as she looks to unseat U.S. Rep. Gwen Graham, D-Fla., in 2016.

Van Zant is one of the leading religious and social conservatives in the Florida Legislature.

"I am proud to endorse Christian conservative Mary Thomas for Congress,” Van Zant said on Tuesday. “Mary is already a vocal proponent for life and she will defend and fight for Florida’s families. In Congress she will be a much needed point of light in an increasingly dark place. While others want to go to Washington to continue business as usual, Mary will go to Washington to do God’s will.”

Thomas is battling Dr. Neal Dunn for the Republican nod to take on Graham.
