Alan Schlesinger Biography

Alan Schlesinger is one of the most popular and richest American attorney who was born on January 4, 1958 in United States. Alan Schlesinger, (aka Alan Gold) (born January 4, 1958) is an American attorney, entrepreneur, and Republican politician from Florida. He has previously served as the Mayor of Derby, Connecticut from 1994 to 1998 and as a member of the Connecticut House of Representatives from 1981 to 1993. He campaigned unsuccessfully for the Republican nomination in Connecticut’s 5th congressional district in 1984, 1990, and 1998. He was the Republican nominee for the U.S. Senate in 2006, a year when incumbent Democrat Joe Lieberman lost his primary to Ned Lamont but continued to the general election on the Connecticut for Lieberman party line, defeating Lamont 49.7%-39.7% with Schlesinger in third place receiving 9.6%. After his defeat, Schlesinger moved to Florida and considered running for Congress from there in 2008 and 2010. In 2013, he announced that he was running in Florida’s 18th congressional district , in the 2014 elections. In 2014, he finished in second place for the Republican nomination behind Carl J. Domino.

After his defeat, Schlesinger became involved in Florida politics. He previously lived there part-time in Palm Beach County and moved there full- time. He considered running for Florida’s 22nd congressional district against Democratic incumbent Ron Klein in 2008 and for Florida’s 19th congressional district in the 2010 special election to replace Democrat Robert Wexler, who had resigned, but ultimately did not run in either race.

In 2013, Schlesinger announced his candidacy for Congress in Florida’s 18th congressional district , centered around Palm Beach. The incumbent was Democrat Patrick Murphy.

In an article published on August 4th, 2014 by George Bennett of the Palm Beach Post, Schlesinger claimed an internal poll conducted by Cherry Communications showed that 53% of potential voters in the Republican Primary were undecided at the time, so he decided to contribute $100,000 more to his campaign efforts. Schlesinger also said that the same poll showed Carl J. Domino remains the front-runner of the race but that he was in second place and the “only one that’s within striking distance”.

In April 2006, Schlesinger announced his intention to run for the U.S. Senate seat currently held by Joe Lieberman, with a pledge to spend $500,000 of his personal funds on the campaign.
