Another day, another winning news cycle for the campaign of Republican Wyman Duggan in Jacksonville’s House District 15, where he looks to succeed outgoing Rep. Jay Fant.
Thursday’s first win: the announcements of two significant endorsements locally, with one of them from Councilman Jim Love, who represents much of HD 15 on the Jacksonville City Council.
Love described Duggan as a “friend and fellow veteran who will make us proud as our next state representative. I know Wyman has the character to lead and will represent all of Jacksonville well in the state house.”
For his part, Duggan said he is “proud to have [Love’s] support and his perspective in this campaign as he has represented much of this district for years and will be a valuable resource along the campaign trail and as I serve in the House.”
Duggan was also endorsed by Jerry Holland, the current Property Appraiser who previously was Supervisor of Elections and a member of the City Council.
“It’s an honor to endorse Wyman Duggan for state representative because he is a strong conservative we can trust to represent our shared values in Tallahassee,” Holland said.
“Jerry has faithfully served our community for almost two decades and has constantly earned the trust of voters. I’m proud to call him a friend and honored to have his support in my campaign,” Duggan added.
Duggan has already been endorsed by Jacksonville Mayor Lenny Curry and State Rep. Jason Fischer. Expect more endorsements to come, as a warning shot across the bow of other would-be candidates.
