A new candidate has opened a campaign account to try to succeed state Rep. Doug Broxson, R-Gulf Breeze who is running for Senate this year, according to the state Division of Elections website.
Navarre Republican Johnathan Walters opened an account Tuesday to run in Broxson’s House District 3, which includes parts of Okaloosa and Santa Rosa counties. He joined fellow Republican Jayer Williamson, a Santa Rosa County commissioner, in the race.
Broxson is seeking a Senate seat that will be vacated by Sen. Greg Evers, a Baker Republican who is running for Congress and the seat held by Rep. Jeff Miller.
