A flood of direct mail hits boxes 10 days before the March 11 special election  for Florida’s 13th Congressional District, coming from both Democrat Alex Sink and Republican David Jolly.

The Republican Party of Florida “Important Correction Notice” mailer that warns voters not to be fooled by Alex Sink’s ads, which the RPOF feels left out some “key facts”: her campaign was supported by “liberal special interest groups,” Nancy Pelosi and President Obama; Sink’s support of Obamacare; and her supporting “higher taxes.”
