David Jolly Headed Back to Congress After Win Over Lucas Overby

Winning his seat in a special election earlier this year, U.S. Rep. David Jolly, R-Fla., is headed back to Washington after his win on Tuesday over Libertarian Lucas Overby. With 96 percent of the vote in, Jolly had 75.5 percent while Overby took 24.5 percent.

I cannot express my gratitude enough for the support and confidence that you have continued to place in me to represent you, and the people of Pinellas, in the United States Congress, said Jolly. It is because of your support that we have been able to accomplish so much already for our Pinellas County community, and I look forward to continuing to advance policies in Congress that are right for the future of our nation and our district.

I pledge to honor your trust by working tirelessly with a commitment to serve everyone in our community, to advance common-sense constitutional principles and with a spirit of advocacy that every voter should expect of their representative, Jolly added. We are in this together. And, together, we can continue on this path of advancing and supporting our Pinellas County interests in Congress.
