Sen. Ellyn Bogdanoff Backs George LeMieux in U.S. Senate Campaign

State Sen. Ellyn Bogdanoff, R-Fort Lauderdale, has endorsed George LeMieux to be the Republican candidate for U.S. Senate, according to a statement from LeMieux's camp on Tuesday.

“After nearly 20 years of friendship, today I am excited to endorse George LeMieux in his bid for U.S. Senate,” Bogdanoff stated in a release.

“George LeMieux is a proven, principled leader who has a record of putting forth common-sense solutions to solve our nation's problems. Being a native Floridian like myself, I know that George will always put the values of Floridians first. George will bring valuable, private-sector experience to the Senate along with his ‘get it done’ attitude, making him the most qualified candidate in this election.”
