| Description | Republican George Buck, who is challenging Charlie Crist, first said he didn’t write the email, then stood by it.
A fundraising letter sent last week by the campaign of George Buck, a Republican running for Congress in St. Petersburg, suggested a member of the House of Representatives and other Democrats should be executed.
The lengthy email dated Nov. 26 repeated an unsupported accusation that U.S. Rep. Ilhan Omar, a Somali-born Democrat representing Minnesota, secretly works for the country of Qatar and should be gravely punished for it.
“We should hang these traitors where they stand,” the email said. |
