Challenger for Wasserman Schultz's Seat Files Election Complaint
----------------------------------------------------------------

Tim Canova, who is running against former Democratic National Committee
Chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz for her congressional seat in Florida,
has filed a complaint against Wasserman Schultz with the Federal
Elections Commission. Wasserman Schultz stepped down last month as DNC
chair after the Wiki Leaks release of nearly 20,000 emails revealing how
the Democratic Party favored Hillary Clinton and worked behind the
scenes to discredit and defeat Bernie Sanders in the presidential
primaries. Canova's campaign said the complaint alleges that Wasserman
Schultz "used her position with the DNC and the resources of the DNC to
improperly benefit her congressional campaign."
