...here's your non-incumbent candidate for Congress in 2012. The Fifth District embraces most of The Villages except the easternmost villages with Lady Lake addresses, has a southern border of about Wesley Chapel and a western border at the gulf and including Cedar Key.

The only candidate opposing incumbent Rich Nugent is John Russell, an independent who pledges to go to Washington with no commitment to either political party. Here's Russell's website...http://www.johnrussellforcongress.com/

Russell will get my vote as the non-incumbent, but I can be even more enthusiastic with his his pledge of independence from either political party.
