Centrist Runs as an Independent for Florida Attorney General

Here is a news story about Jeffrey Siskind, an independent candidate for Attorney General of Florida. He is only the third person in the last 90 years to be on the ballot for that office, who is not a Republican or Democratic nominee. Florida law made it virtually impossible for anyone to run outside the two major parties (except for President) from 1931 through 1998. The law was eased in 1999. The only other two non-major party candidates for Florida Attorney General have been independent Jim Lewis, who got 3.8% in 2010; and Libertarian Bill Wohsifer, who got 2.9% in 2014.

Siskind says he is a centrist. He has in the past been both a Democrat and a Republican.
