It looks like former State Rep. Frank White will step aside if Florida CFO Jimmy Patronis files to run for Matt Gaetz’s seat. On X, White retweeted Patronis’ post that he was”strongly considering running for Florida Congressional District 1″ and added this comment:
@FrankWhiteFL
Jimmy, please run! The Panhandle needs you in Washington!
Patronis has also told a Panama City television station that he is considering it:
