| Description | Republican Chief Financial Officer Jeff Atwater of North Palm Beach, considered the GOP frontrunner to replace Sen. Marco Rubio in 2016, said today he has decided not to run.
Atwater was expected to open a Senate campaign or an exploratory committee soon after Rubio’s anticipated Monday announcement that he’s running for president. Atwater supporters set up a super PAC last week to raise and spend unlimited sums in support of an Atwater Senate campaign.
“As positive as the feedback and encouragement have been, we felt this is not the right time,” Atwater said in an interview with The Palm Beach Post. |
