I am humbled to announce that Marion Hammer has endorsed me for re-election as Leon County Republican State Committeeman. Marion and I met when I was an undergraduate at Florida State University, and I have had the privilege of her friendship for many years. Those who know Marion know how she values and embodies integrity. Jeb Bush has said of Marion, “When she says it, you know she means it, and you know her word is golden.” I am honored to accept the endorsement of Marion Hammer.

I met Jeff almost 30 years ago when he had a full head of hair and was working his heart out for conservative causes. He hasn’t stopped — and won’t stop working for what’s right. That’s what makes him uniquely qualified for re-election and that’s why I’m proud to give Jeff Howell my personal endorsement.
