Former President Bill Clinton “says he didn’t ask Democratic candidate Kendrick Meek to drop out of the Florida Senate race, but says the two spoke about the race and its challenges,” the AP reports.
Clinton issued a statement on Friday in which he called Meek a close friend. He said he and Meek spoke last week after a rally in Orlando. Clinton said he told Meek that how he goes forward in the race was his decision to make.
Clinton said he still believes Meek could be the best senator for Florida.
