Local Candidate Drops Out of Race

Former State Democratic Party Chair, Leon DEC Chair, and Mayor of Tallahassee, Scott Maddox, has formally dropped out of the race for Governor. Many of our members have worked closely with the former Chairman over the last few years and have a great deal of respect for him.

The Tallahassee Democrat reports:

"Former Tallahassee Mayor Scott Maddox dropped out of the race for governor today and endorsed U.S. Rep. Jim Davis of Tampa for the Democratic nomination.
Maddox said the controversy surrounding his handling of Democratic Party finances when he was state chairman has not badly wounded his campaign, and his fund-raising for the past quarter was adequate. But, he said, the Democrats can't compete with the Republicans unless they unite and concentrate what money they have on winning next year."

My Affinity for Live Oak

I wanted to make sure that everyone is aware of the potential for a quasi local person to qualify to run for the President of the United States. It is slightly distressing that he has chosen to run a Whig, but although the Democratic Party is a Giant tent, it is not for everyone.

Pate in 2008

Michael Pate, of Live Oak, Florida, has declared his intentions of running on the Whig Ticket for President of the great U.S. of A. His Bio page clearly states why, and I quote the content in full detail:

A little about me...
I meet all three Constitutional requirements for President:
I am over 35 years old
I was born in the United States
I have lived in the United States for over 14 years
