We need to help send Christine to Washington, because, by all rights, she should already be there.

In 2006, Republican Vern Buchanan beat Christine Jennings by 373 votes in Florida's 13th District (Sarasota and Tampa). With less than one half of one percent of the vote, the tiny margin triggered an great controversy (sound familiar?).

The Republican candidate ultimately won by 369 votes, although the mystery of over 18,000 "undervotes" in the district's Sarasota County went unsolved.

Ironically, Christine was running for the Congressional seat vacated by Katharine Harris (yes, that Katharine Harris), who made an unsuccessful bid for the Senate in '06.

Christine Jennings is a smart, self-made leader who rose from humble beginnings to become the CEO of a Florida bank. In the interest of justice, let's help her take back this seat in 2008 and shine some light on the Sunshine State.

Christine has been endorsed by EMILY's List and the DCCC's Red to Blue Program.
