We've learned that barring any last-minute collapse of a deal that's all but done, the Republican former congressman will announce his candidacy for the District 3 state Senate seat tomorrow.
...Bradley said he'd step aside for Kenney "and be the first to write him a check," but that apparently won't be necessary. Kenney will be the one to step aside, clearing the way for Bradley, who said yesterday only that he is "still getting a lot of phone calls and contacts from people urging me to consider it." He said he is "flattered," but is still weighing family obligations.
This is odd. If Jeb loses, it's the end of his political career - again (aren't we already in the post-Jeb era?).
If he wins, he holds on to a state senate seat previously held by the GOP and would have to attend to actual matters of state legislation.
Then there's this fun fact: his opponent, Bud Martin, with far less name recognition, earned more votes than Jeb in the senate district in 2008.
