The Jacksonville establishment continues to coalesce behind Wyman Duggan as he seeks the GOP nomination in Florida House District 15.
On Thursday, U.S. Rep. John Rutherford endorsed Duggan in his bid to replace Rep. Jay Fant, who is running for Attorney General.
“Wyman Duggan is a conservative who will serve our community well in Tallahassee. I trust that Wyman will prioritize Public Safety and stand up for our shared conservative values as our next state representative in district 15. I’m proud to endorse his campaign,” Rutherford said.
“It’s an honor to have Congressman Rutherford’s support in this campaign. He has long been a champion for our community and for public safety. In Congress he has been a true conservative leader by voting to repeal Obamacare and standing up for our military and veterans,” Duggan added.
Rutherford joins Jacksonville Mayor Lenny Curry and State Rep. Jason Fischer in backing Duggan.
