Republican congressional candidate state Rep. Mike Miller has received the endorsement of Seminole County Commissioner Bob Dallari in the contest for Florida’s 7th Congressional District.
Miller, of Winter Park, faces Sanford businessman Scott Sturgill and Vennia Francois of Winter Park in battling for the August 28 Republican primary to run for the seat. They each want to take on Democratic incumbent U.S. Rep. Stephanie Murphy of Winter Park.
Dallari is a past chair of the Seminole County Commission.
“Seminole County needs a strong leader in Congress to work to protect the recently passed tax cuts, rebuild our military and honor our commitment to our veterans, and that person is Mike Miller, Dallari stated in a news release issued Monday by Miller’s campaign. “For years those of us in Seminole County knew we could count on John Mica to listen to our issues and be a strong advocate of us and I believe Mike will follow in that tradition.”
Mica was the longtime congressman from Winter Park, who lost to Murphy in the 2016 election.
