Either Democrat winning House District 22 in Broward and Palm Beach Counties will have a fight on her hands.
The Republican Adam Hasner today announced he had over $1 million in the bank after raising more than $500,000 in the quarter just ended.
Former West Palm Beach Mayor Lois Frankel and Broward County Commissioner Kristin Jacobs will be using a lot of their money in the August Democratic primary. Although the numbers favor Democrats, no one should discount the kind of money Hasner has been raising.
Here is Hasner’s news release:

Anyone who gives to this guy is a fool and is wasting their money cause as the last poster stated this seat is Blue.
FROM BUDDY:
Although I agree that the Democrat will probably win this seat, I NEVER underestimate the potential for Democrats to screw up.

Pandering to what he envisions Jewish voters care about, Hasner says the Democrats and Obama “sold out Israel.” He has been bought by the ultra-right wing casino owner Sheldon Adelson.
Jews in America are much more concerned with the economy and economic fairness than Israel. The Democrats have a corner on economic issues because the Republicans have always been and continue to be the party of the rich like Adelson who pull Hasner’s strings.

1 million? Allen West had over 8 million looked at the numbers and ran like a scared rabbit for a red district.

Whether Jacobs or Frankel wins the Dem nomination, Hasner will face a much yougher opponent than did West. Klein ran a weak campaign in 2010.

120 days from now we will know, but my money is on Hasner, not because he is the better candidate, but because Frankel, who will win Aug 14, has too many that dislike her.
