Alan Grayson has been defeated in FL-08.
Looks like he's going to be defeated by a large margin.
Let's give Alan a round of applause. I heard him say many times something to the effect of he wasn't going to bite his tongue just to win reelection.
Alan Grayson will have served one term in Congress but he stood up for liberals and progressives. I will always thank him for that.
I'm sure he will drop by at some point, but just wanted to thank him for what he has done over the last couple of years.
He was a fierce ally on health care reform and sending the troops home in Iraq. He didn't care about reelection for personal reasons like so many on both sides of the aisle.
Here's one blurb from Central Florida news
Incumbent Alan Grayson has conceded to Republican Daniel Webster in the race for the Congressional District 8 seat.
Grayson conceded at his watch party at Slingapour's in downtown Orlando Tuesday night.
Grayson's campaign said they needed a massive Democratic turnout to win, and that simply didn't happen with the weather.
This race received a lot of national attention due to the negativity and Grayson's antics.
