Marine veteran Chandler Langevin is dropping out of the House District 33 race and endorsing Republican Primary opponent Monique Miller.
Langevin announced in February for the open seat, which is being vacated by Rep. Randy Fine, a Palm Bay Republican facing term limits.
But Miller, a Moms For Liberty activist, filed for the seat as well in mid-May She rapidly amassed a significant war chest, raising more than $130,000 in the first two weeks of her campaign.
Of note, $100,000 of that comes from a candidate loan. But her campaign raised a little more than $23,000 in outside donations. Additionally, the political committee Friends of Monique Miller raised $8,000, all of it from California donor Nicholas Miller.
By comparison, Langevin opened a campaign account in May 2022 but had raised less than $18,000 over the course of 13 months.
“What’s most important to me,” Langevin said, “is that we get a true conservative to represent District 33. Monique has solid bona fides among grassroots conservatives and has impressed the establishment with her early fundraising success. She clearly has the ability to win, and she has my full support.”
Miller welcomed her former opponent’s support in the race.
“Chandler has a lot to offer Brevard County,” she said. “I would love to see him continue to pursue his political aspirations. There is no doubt he has the chops to do great things. Palm Bay, where he resides, could use a solid conservative like him.”
Langevin, who remains active in the Republican Liberty Caucus, has not announced plans to run for another office.
Miller must still compete in a Republican Primary for the HD 33 seat. Logan Luse of Palm Bay announced his candidacy in March. Since then, he has reported raising more than $17,000. Satellite Beach Republican Erika Orriss, a software engineer, filed in April and has raised around $1,600.
Democrat Anthony Yantz has also filed and raised less than $1,000. Libertarian Grover Bentley has reported less than $200 raised.

Good mornimg America,
A lot of locals are taking note of my, Earl Pitts American’s, wise advice to ditch the dude and run the H0T MiIF for the win.
Congrats locals for paying attention and following the winning stratigery of the man, Earl Pitts American, who has his finger on the pulse of “What Voters Want”.
Really America, this is no job for amatures.
Rather then trying to muddle through on your own and then looking like a total nimrod by having to loose all public respect with back-tracking [like in the above article regarding HD 33] just call Earl Pitts American and do it once and do it right and most importantly do it for the win.
Try this easy one step process:
1.) Call Earl.
There now local political decision makers. Have an Earl Pitts American day.
Thank you America,
Earl Pitts American
