Rep. Maria Elvira Salazar spoke to a crowded room of supporters and undecided voters as she seeks another term in Florida’s 27th Congressional District. Her Democratic challenger is Eliott Rodriguez, a former television news anchor.

The source report, published by CBS News Miami on Oct. 15, is a short video segment. It shows Salazar making her case at the event but offers little detail beyond that. It does not describe the specific issues discussed or what was said by either candidate.

The race is one of several congressional contests shaping the ballot in South Florida this November. Voters in the district should expect more coverage as the election approaches.
