New District, But Same Representative


Obviously, I have not been walking and talking in now what is officially known as District 5, formerly District 3.  The district numbering recently changed following the realignment that occurs every decade after the national census. Florida received two additional seats based on the census, which necessitated among others reasons the realignment.

Fortunately or unfortunately depending upon one’s view, I still have Corrine Brown as my representative.  It seems she has a lock on another two years.  One day I hope to change that, but making ends meet in a tough economic climate is….well, tough and has led me to focus my efforts and priorities on keeping my head afloat.

I know one way to remove her from office, which would be if we had term limits. I have faith and confidence that day is fast approaching.
