Alan Grayson’s girlfriend is running for the seat he’s vacating to run for senate. Dena Minning- a biochemist and physician- filed paperwork last Friday as a candidate for US congress in Florida’s 9th Congressional District.
Grayson is running against South Florida congressman Patrick Murphy in the Democratic primary for the US senate.
In a statement he praised Minning’s “commitment to universal healthcare.”
Grayson said he’s not making any endorsements but wishes her well.
Also running in the Democratic primary for Grayson’s congressional seat: his former district director Susannah Randolph, state senator Darren Soto, former state rep. Ricardo Rangel, and former Osceola Democratic Executive Committee chair Valleri Crabtree.
