Description | JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- Anti-abortion activist Randall Terry, who resurfaced on the national stage in Terri Schiavo's dying days, said Thursday he will decide in three weeks whether to launch a Republican primary challenge to former state Senate President Jim King.
Terry, 46, with about 25 supporters standing behind him, said at a news conference that he planned to challenge King, whom he claimed had strayed away from conservative values, if he can find "momentum, manpower and money."
Terry said he has a goal of raising $15,000 within the next three weeks, although he concedes it may take more than $500,000 to mount a challenge to King in the heavily Republican district that stretches from Duval County to northern Volusia County. |
