Bradenton Republican Rep. Jim Boyd announced a major fundraiser in September to support his re-election bid to House District 71.
He is now running unopposed, and will term-limit out of the Florida House in 2018.
Boyd is a former Palmetto City Councilman, who is now Deputy Majority Leader and Whip for the 2014-2016 legislative term. The event will be 5:30 to 7 p.m. Wednesday, Sept. 23 at Gold Coast Eagle Distributing, 7051 Wireless Court in Sarasota.
District 71 includes most of Manatee County west of U.S. 41, parts of Sarasota north of downtown and along the waterfront through Longboat Key.
