A. J. Smith Withdraws from District 10 House Race

Wakulla.com is reporting that A. J. Smith has withdrawn from the District 10 House Race. This is the seat that Rep. Will Kendrick currently Representatives. Rep. Kendrick is a good man, and has been elected as a Democrat to the State House 4 times. Unfortunately, Rep. Kendrick switched parties and became a Republican after the election in 2006, when he ran unopposed for his race, this will be a stain on his character and reputation for a long time to come. We understand that people change parties, but if a person is elected to represent people as on political party, they shouldn't switch parties. Rep. Kendrick is popular and good, he probably would have been re-elected as a Republican, but now many people are disappointed and have lost their trust in him.

We must work hard to elect whichever Democrat wins the primary this August. We must send a message to the Republican Party and Tallahassee... When you are elected you represent the people and the party that elected you.
