"We think it shows that we clearly have some leaders here in the Southeast, particularly in Florida," said Jennifer Rennicks, political director for the Southern Alliance for Clean Energy Action Fund. "It also shows that we have some people who might talk about clean energy and energy independence and energy security, but don't vote that way."
