DescriptionA Democratic candidate has stepped up to challenge freshman congressman Charles Boustany - the first Republican voters in District 7 have ever elected for office.

Mike Stagg, a 2003 gubernatorial candidate who walked nearly 1,000 miles as part of that campaign to appeal to voters across the state, is ready to start another grassroots effort to become the district's new congressman.

This one will take him online - where he hopes to unite the district that extends across southwest Louisiana.

"I know that challenging an incumbent is difficult, but Boustany needs to be held accountable for his votes," Stagg said. "I sense that people understand something is wrong when their voice isn't heard."
