Rehwinkel Vasilinda Cruises in Dem Primary Battle

Rep. Michelle Rehwinkel Vasilinda, D-Tallahassee, easily prevailed over former Leon County Democratic Chairman Rick Minor in the Democratic primary. With more than 20,000 votes cast, Rehwinkel Vasilinda won almost 69 percent of the vote. It looks like she will face businesswoman Kirk Headley-Perdue. While she had the RPOFs backing and outspent plucky conservative activist Ann Yarko in the Republican primary, Headley-Perdue carried 55 percent while Yarko took 45 percent with more than 13,000 votes cast.
