Alan Grayson files for U.S. Senate run in 2024 against Rick ScottFormer U.S. Rep. Alan Grayson appears poised to make another run for U.S. Senate. The Orlando Democrat filed to challenge U.S. Sen. Rick Scott, a Naples Republican running for a second term. There remains no mention of a new candidacy on Grayson’s social media pages. His last posts date back to a run for U.S. House last year, when he lost the Democratic Primary in Florida’s 10th Congressional District to now-U.S. Rep. Maxwell Alejandro Frost. Grayson has run for Senate before. He vacated his U.S. House seat in 2016 to run against U.S. Sen. Marco Rubio. But he didn’t have support at the time from party leadership. Then-Senate Democratic Leader Harry Reid lambasted Grayson as having “no moral compass” and said he wanted the Orlando Democrat to lose the Democratic Primary.
