Palm Beach Escorts: Wexler to leave Congress for Middle East-focused nonprofit, Democratic sources say

October 14th, 2009 by palmbeachhobbyist

Wexler gained national fame in 1998 as a vocal defender of former President Clinton during Clinton’s impeachment. He continued to be a presence on national TV after the 2000 presidential election, when many of Wexler’s constituents complained they were confused by Palm Beach County’s “butterfly ballot” and Wexler became a leading critic the presidential recount.
Wexler then became a prominent foe of the paperless electronic voting systems that Florida and many other states adopted in the aftermath of the 2000 election.
Wexler was unsuccessful with lawsuits claiming paperless voting was unconstitutional. But after his friend Charlie Crist was elected governor in 2002, Wexler persuaded Crist to support a law requiring paper ballots in Florida.
Since his initial victory in 1996, Wexler has not faced a serious reelection challenge in his liberal district.
In 2006, Comedy Central’s Stephen Colbert highlighted Wexler’s seeming political invincibility by getting Wexler to joke on camera about enjoying cocaine and prostitutes.
