TALLAHASSEE — Firebrand Democrat Alan Grayson says he wants to return to Congress in 2018, but is not yet saying which seat he's running for.
“Yes, this cycle is what I’m looking at,†Grayson told POLITICO Florida in a telephone interview Monday. “But Florida law says I can run anywhere.â€
When pressed for specifics, he said: "TBD."
The Orlando Democrat has never stopped accepting online contributions since leaving Congress in 2016 to run for the U.S. Senate. He has $556,000 cash-on-hand, and has continued receiving small-dollar contributions since his loss in the Democratic primary to Patrick Murphy. Republican Sen. Marco Rubio defeated Murphy in the general election.
Grayson in recent months has again started actively soliciting online contributions from the same small-dollar base that in the past helped make him a dangerous fundraiser. During the last three months of 2017, Grayson raised nearly $60,000, all small contributions from donors across the county.
