Michael McKenna Presents a Grassroots Challenge to Dan Webster
Winners and Losers of the Florida Primaries
There wasnt much drama in Tuesdays primaries, with little to take interest in at the state level as Rick Scott and Charlie Crist cruised in the gubernatorial primaries and George Sheldon beat Perry Thurston to become the sacrificial lamb thrown at Pam Bondi in November.
Despite that, there were some major winners and losers across the Sunshine State after the smoke cleared.
WINNERS
Despite Easy Path in 2014, Jeff Atwater's Actively Helping the GOP
Most Florida Congressmen Look Safe in Tuesday's Primaries
Gubernatorial, Cabinet Primaries Hold Little Drama
Charlie Crist Won Democrat Hearts But Other Voters Aren't Swooning
Rick Scott Can't Let the Race Turn Into a Spending Contest
Sheldon and Thurston Bogged Down in Last Days of Dem AG Primary
While there are some interesting legislative contests, this is an underwhelming primary season in Florida and it starts at the top.
Rick Scott will have no problem running over his no-name challengers on the Republican side. The only question left with the Democrats is how wide will Charlie Crist's margin be over Nan Rich? Things arent much better on the congressional front where some of the most competitive primaries are in seats safe for the other party.
