Paul Renner launching re-election campaign June 21

Palm Coast Republican Rep. Paul Renner is kicking off his bid for a second term in House District 24 with a hometown fundraiser later this month.

The campaign launch event will be held at the Palm Coast Arts Foundation, 1500 Central Ave., from 5:30 pm to 7:30 pm on June 21. The reception will likely double as a celebration for qualifying for the ballot — Renner hit the his required signature total for HD 24 a couple weeks ago.

The first-term Republican, slated to take over as House Speaker following the 2022 elections, faces Democrat Adam Morley in the fall. Morley has is also set to qualify for the ballot by petition, though Renner likely isn’t quaking in his boots. HD 24 is a Republican stronghold, and Renner’s campaign and committee accounts are stocked with cash.

To that end, the kickoff event suggests a light $25 contribution to his campaign account to make the guest list. Those willing to part with that sum can send in an RSVP via [email protected].

The invitation is below.
