Webster Wins in CD 8, Setting up Showdown with Grayson and TEA Candidate

Former state Sen. Daniel Webster cruised to victory over six Republican opponents and will face Rep. Alan Grayson, D-Orlando, and TEA Party candidate Peg Dunmire in November.

The 8th Congressional District primary was hotly contested as Republicans lined up for a shot at Grayson, a hyper-partisan and polarizing freshman congressman.

The fall campaign is already off to a lively start as Dunmire immediately challenged Grayson and Webster to three-way debates, and Republican Party Chairman John Thrasher trashed both Grayson and the TEA Party.
