One of Florida Tea Party Congressional Nominees is an Elected County Commissioner

One of the three U.S. House candidates in Florida for the ballot-qualified Tea Party is a Polk County Commissioner. He is Randy Wilkinson, running in the 12th district. See this story about him. As the story points out, because Wilkinson changed his registration from “Republican” to “Tea Party”, he is probably the first elected official anywhere to be a member of the political party named “Tea Party.” Thanks to Austin Cassidy for the link.
