Long Wins Windermere Straw Poll

Posted by phil On April - 30 - 2010

LONG WINS WINDERMERE STRAW POLL
Beats Webster Handily in His Own Backyard
Orlando — Last night, Todd Long continued his undefeated streak, winning his fourth straight straw poll at the Southwest Orange County Republican (SWOCR) Candidate Forum at Windermere Town Hall. This win comes on the heels of straw poll victories at the Orange County Republican Executive Committee Hob-Nob, the Orlando TeaParty Hob-Nob, and the Celebration GOP Candidate Forum. Long was also the favorite in a poll conducted by Zogby International, which gave Long a double-digit lead, showing the conservative activist and radio show host has strong support amongst the GOP’s grassroots base. Webster (who decided not to attend the debate held in the middle of his former Senate District) finished a distant fifth in the voting.

“It is obvious, from all of these debates, that Republicans are looking for a candidate with specific, conservative solutions to our national challenges to represent them in Washington. They are looking for someone who has that fighting spirit of our Founders. Lastly, they want someone who will fiercely challenge the failed Establishment of both parties who have abandoned the principles and values that made America so prosperous and they see these qualities in our campaign,” said Long.

STEVE KING ENDORSES LONG
Glenn Beck’s Favorite Congressman Hopes for a Conservative Comeback in FL-8

Orlando, FL/Kiron, IA—Today, Congressman Steve King (R-IA,) a leader in the fight to stop Obamacare, endorsed conservative Todd Long in his bid to unseat Alan Grayson (D-FL). King and Long are in agreement on key issues facing our nation, including: the Fair Tax, a balanced budget amendment to the Constitution, and 100% repeal of Obamacare.

“All across the country Americans are stepping up to their duty to defend our Constitution and individual liberty. We need a full spectrum of Constitutional conservatives in Congress. Todd is that man and I ask Floridians to send Todd Long to Washington to join me in putting Congress back on its rightful constitutional foundation,” said King.

“Congressman King is a warrior for the conservative cause. This is why Glenn Beck sings his praises and why his endorsement means so much to me. If the people send me to Washington, I hope to join Steve King, and others who are leading the way,” said Long.

Congressman Steve King will host a fundraiser for Long on, April 12, 2010 in Orlando after the Tea Party event at City Hall.
