REQUEST FOR FLORIDA FREEPER ACTION LEADING UP TO THE AUGUST 14TH PRIMARY ELECTION!
June 24, 2012 | SeekTheTruth

Posted on 06/24/2012 8:27:23 AM PDT by seekthetruth

We can do it! We can work together to elect the best Conservatives to Congress from our Sunshine State!

Remember, we have two new Florida Congressional Districts and many FL US House Districts have changed!

We need to make sure we elect as many Conservatives as we can!

Let's do everything we can to keep our Republidan seats in Congress! We have just Bill Nelson to vote out and 6 Incumbent/Socialist/Progressive/Marxist/DEMS to vote out of the US House!

Our action in the upcoming Republican Primary Election will help elect the best Conservative to get the job done in November!

Please help post information about the Republican candidates running in your Congressional District and share this thread link with your Florida email lists.

We made GREAT PROGRESS in 2010, so let's make even more in 2012!

Bob Black has a website-
http://bobblackdistrict4.com/

I don’t think he stands a chance against a likely well funded incumbent.

The other Dist. 4 R challenger quite frankly sounded like a Democrat to me after reading her website.

You are so right! I hope FL voters check out their county Judicial candidates. A good place to check to learn some about them is at each county Supervisor of Elections website.

Thanks for finding his web site! I was going to check again but didn’t find one for him when I did for the other candidates.

And thanks for your feedback. Hoping many Freepers will share what they know about candidates in their particular ditricts.

Primary races are the time to try to elect the best Conservative to face the DEMRAT in November!

I also know that even if some of our Conservative candidates are not as Conservative as we would like, we need to support them against the DEMS come November.

Once we get control of the Senate and keep the House and get a Conservative in our White House, we can then work on keeping tabs on the RiNOish Conservatives for future elections.

We just must get Obama and as many members of his gang out of office come November!

Thanks! The 10th is now the 13th but we still have CW Bill Young ... I’m betting he’s safe, for better or worse.

My feeling is that our efforts would best be directed toward booting Nelson out of the Senate.

Yes, there are several changes in the incumbent districts! I was in Bill Young's district 10, but now in district 14. I also believe Bill Young is safe. I will be helping the Republican winner in District 14 to defeat Betty Castor in November!

Here is a great article which certainly points out the importance of our taking control of the Senate and keeping control of the House! Also great to send to every “Bush hater” we know!

This sure points out the importance of having control of the House and Senate! Also great to send to every “Bush hater” you know!

Somehow here in Seminole County FL we have to choose between Sandy Adams and John Mica.
I like them both and wish FL could keep both.

Dr. Dave Weldon was a good representative. He was in office 8 (?) years, and in that length of time, he only voted in a way different from what I would have maybe 3 times. He hasn't had the publicity the others have, but he would be a good senator. He knows the problems with ObamaCare, and has vowed to over-turn it.

Don't blame you. Sure many in your District 7 like both Sandy Adams and John Mica. Be sure to check to make sure you are still in District 7. If you voted for Sandy Adams in 2010 you were in District 24. John Mica was also in District 7 in 2010.

The easy way for everyone in FL to check their Congressional District for 2012 is to go to your County Supervisor of Elections website and put in your address to check your Congressional District. District lines cross through more than one County, to your address is the only way to know your District for sure. Here is the link. Just click on your particular County.

I too was under Young. I met him a few times, seemed affable enough, but he’s def. one of those lifetimers that should probably be rotated out. I know a few people who’ve tried to run against him, but he’s got a real campaign machine behind him.

I lucked out and found myself under Bilirakis, who I absolutely adore as a Representative. Very happy about that.

Yes, Dave Weldon does have a very good background. I could be wrong but believe Weldon entered the race later than Connie Mack did. Mack has a large list of endorsements from the GOP so guess he believes he is the ultimate winner of the Primary. Perhaps that is why Mack has decided not to enter a debate with the other three candidates, McCalister, Stuart and Weldon.

Let's not forget the STATE HOUSE & SENATE elections! A good friend of mine is running for the seat in the newly created district 115. His name is Eugenio Perez and he's a former Marine and US Marshal, but he retired from the Federal Dept. of Corrections. He's led prison SWAT teams in (IIRC) three states. Great guy. He's a teacher, now. That's what we need in state government: A CONSERVATIVE EDUCATOR IN THE LEGISLATURE.

Thanks for this thread. We used to be represented by Ileana ros Lehtinen,she was really good as far as constituent services go.
Don’t know who we have now in the Keys.

See my post #3 for info on District changes. If you voted for Lehtinen in 2010 you were in FL District 18. She is now running in District 27 and is unopposed. She will face DEM Manny Yevancey in November.

Perhaps your Congressional District is now District 27. Check at this link below. Click on your County (Monroe?)and put your address in at your Supervisor Of Elections website. Your District and Precinct information is there.
You may still be in Lehitinen’s District, and if so your new voter card will say District 27. Hubby and I went from District 10 to District 14!
