Millions Spent to Replace Radel

“Republicans have spent millions ahead of Tuesday’s special primary to replace former Rep. Trey Radel (R-FL) — and the 19th District television airwaves show it,” Roll Call reports.

“Three of Radel’s potential successors boast at least $1 million in airtime behind each of their efforts — both from their own campaigns and outside groups boosting them. It’s a staggering number for an otherwise under-the-radar primary in a special election.”
