It’s Official: Race To The Right Begins In FL-13 GOP Primary

Washington, D.C. – House Majority PAC released the following statement as GOP State Rep. Kathleen Peters officially announced her candidacy in the FL-13 special election, setting up a race-to-the-right primary with David Jolly, deceased Rep. Bill Young’s handpicked successor.

“Pinellas voters had better buckle up as this competitive Republican primary means both David Jolly and Kathleen Peters will be sprinting to the right as fast they can,” said Andy Stone, Communications Director for House Majority PAC. “In fact, in this fierce GOP contest, Jolly and Peters will be cozying up to the same reckless wing of their party that shut down the government and was cheerleading a financial default – something voters in the 13th district won’t forget come March.”
