The Democratic candidate for the 27th Congressional seat is Wesley Reed. Reed was a fighter pilot in the Marines and I believe that he is an airline pilot now.

You are absolutely correct about getting rid of DuckyJama and returning this traditionally blue congressional seat back to the Democratic column.
