Episode 174: Challenge Accepted

The Rotunda with Trimmel Gomes

On Trimmel Gomes’ latest episode of The Rotunda, U.S. Representative Al Lawson, D-Tallahassee, reflects on his time in Congress. As he seeks re-election, he fights off accusations from opponents that he’s a special interest candidate. One of Lawson’s challengers, Democrat Albert Chester, tells Gomes that constituents in Congressional District 5 need new energy and claims his experience as a pharmacist will help solve the country’s healthcare problems. Also, Florida House candidate Elijah Manley says he’s running to wake up Rep. Bobby DuBose, D-Fort Lauderdale, who won his last two terms unopposed.
