Stacy Frank wins endorsement of Tampa firefighters

JANUARY 26, 2010

Stacy Frank, the Democratic candidate for the Distrct 57 state House seat, has won the endorsement of the Tampa firefighters union, her campaign announced this week. Frank is the only Democrat seeking to replace Republican Faye Culp, who is term-limited out of the post. Democrat Clifford Somers had filed to run, but withdrew from the race.

Frank is setting up her campaign headquarters on Kennedy Boulevard near Dale Mabry Highway, right by Five Guys Burgers & Fries. She says she'll buy a hot dog (a frank from Frank, get it?) from Five Guys for anyone who volunteers for her campaign.
