The incompetence of Florida Democrats astounds and perplexes me. Isn't this a competitive district?

Politics1 lists Joe Shea as the Democratic candidate. What is his story?

The DNC needs to seize control of the state party. The job that they have done here, from the moment Young passed, is completely unacceptable.

Burn it to the ground. I can run a better party than them.

There will be no FL-13 candidate with a D after his name. The DCCC is backing some guy from Tampa (doesn't even live in the district) who's unknown in local politics, has never held office, and is running as an NPA. Someone really needs to send the DCCC a memo reminding them that FL-13 is in Pinellas, not Hillsborough.

I read he lives in St. Petersburg, which is better.

State website has only Jolly, Jany, Overby and a write-in as having filed, and since the deadline was today...

Ed Jany has dropped out of the race after several lies where found in his résumé. Jolly is now running unopposed.

Libertarian +1.

Actually, the Libertarian in the race isn't a bad candidate - decent name recognition from his run in the special, where he got around 5% of the vote and was included in debates/polling. Wouldn't be surprised to see him get in the 20s or 30s here.

Worse still, it is boring in its incompetence.  At least the South Carolina Dems gave us Alvin Greene during their incompetent phase.

Heads need to roll. This is f***ing inexcusable.

I would love to make a Lemongrab reference, but I really can't here. Raze this goddamn pathetic excuse of a party. Even the Arkansas Democrats would be better.

We may be changing districts. The Judge can order a redrawing if he finds the current districts were drawn for partisan purposes (hint: Corrine Brown's probably was).

Not to mention the little gerrymander connecting Tampa with St. Pete. Might give Jolly a harder time.

Oh, btw, it looks like this Terry Lewis guy was a Democratic appointee. Do we know anything else about him?

Yep, I live in FL-14. Be nice to have the same representative as the rest of St. Pete.

Lewis is known as a quiet, independent, and fair judge. Chiles appointee, FSU grad, and I'm pretty sure he's a native of Leon County. He overruled our parental notification law and presided over part of the 2000 election controversy. He has also written three Grisham-style legal thrillers. Seems like he'll give Dems a fair shot, at least.

Val Demings has unexpectedly dropped out of her race for Orange County Mayor. No real reason has been given, but some are saying that Demings is betting on FL-10 being made more D-leaning in a new redistricting, and wants to run for that rather than Mayor.
