The Jeffersonian Party of Florida is a new political party with ballot access that advocates for federal, constitutional, American government. We seek to restore bottom-up, authentic self-government by working face to face at the local level first and prioritizing substance over spectacle.

Yes, I will be on your general election ballot November 3, 2026 regardless of your party affiliation. In order to vote at all, you need to be a registered Florida voter and you can do so here. I encourage you to register as a Jeffersonian if you want to restore truly federal, constitutional, American government.

On June 17th, a straw poll was conducted by the Collier Supervisor of Elections at an event sponsored by several civic organizations in Collier County. I received approximately 40% (65) of the vote, and the incumbent received approximately 60% (99).

At an event so early in the election cycle, in which a new third party candidate is challenging a Republican incumbent in a heavily red County, that is an exceptionally strong showing and demonstrates the viability of my campaign.

Additionally, other third parties usually take a top down approach and they barely get any votes and waste a lot of time, effort, and money. The Jeffersonian Party advocates for a bottom-up approach, which has been demonstrated to work repeatedly throughout the country's history, and in recent years with many local third-party candidates winning their races.

Win at the bottom and build momentum before working upwards.

There is no Democrat candidate in this race. I am the only challenger, so there is no risk of spoiling.

In addition, the Collier Supervisor of Elections divides voters into categories, and I will display their numbers below (As of 11/27/25):

Republicans: 144,177

Democrats: 50,234

Others: 66,377

In Collier County, there are more "Other" voters than Democrats, by a lot. Voters are looking for an alternative on the ballot and I would like to provide that.
