Nathan Boyles will kick off fundraising for his state House campaign with an event at Andy D’s Roadhouse in Milton on February 18.

  • The fundraiser, scheduled for 5:30-7 p.m., features a host committee that includes several current and former elected officials: Jay Trumbull, Don Gaetz, Alex Andrade, Javier Williamson, and Graham Fountain.

Boyles, who recently completed 12 years as an Okaloosa County Commissioner, announced his candidacy on December 9 for the House District 3 seat being vacated by Rep. Joel Rudman.

The Milton event marks Boyles’ first public campaign gathering since entering the race for the special election. The seat opened after Rudman submitted his resignation to pursue Florida’s 1st Congressional District seat.

The special election will include an April 1 primary followed by a June 10 general election, according to Executive Order 25-14 signed by Governor Ron DeSantis on January 21. 

Campaign contributions are limited to $1,000 per individual or business under Florida law.
