NRA Backs Jeff Atwater for CFO

Senate President Jeff Atwater of North Palm Beach, the Republican CFO candidate, was thrilled to be endorsed by the NRA on Friday -- the day when America celebrates the passage of the Constitution. The NRA gave Atwater an A-plus for his record on Second Amendment issues.

"On a day that celebrates the wisdom of the founders who established our nation and created our Constitution, it is a great honor to have my work to protect our freedoms acknowledged," said Atwater.

"No other candidate in this race has the background of dedicated legislative service that you have demonstrated to the cause of freedom, the Second Amendment and protection of constitutional rights, wrote Marion Hammer of the NRA to Atwater.
