Republican state Rep. Sam Garrison (R-FL) secured another term representing Florida House District 11 after no opponent qualified to challenge him. Under Florida election law, unopposed candidates are deemed elected without appearing on the general election ballot.
Candidates and platforms
Garrison's campaign website says he supports enforcing consumer protection laws, holding insurers accountable, and stopping practices that drive up prices. He also advocates lower taxes and fewer government regulations.
A second campaign page identifies protecting communities, creating jobs, promoting mental health, lowering insurance premiums, cutting taxes, and making Florida more affordable among his priorities.
Garrison has also emphasized funding for mental and behavioral health. Florida Politics reported that he advocated a comprehensive approach to state behavioral health spending rather than addressing individual programs in isolation.
Democrat Charlie Browne, also known as Charles Peter Browne, appeared in the district's previous election cycle but did not run in the general election. The Florida Division of Elections lists Browne as a defeated candidate in the 2024 election, while its candidate list for the current cycle identifies Garrison as the only qualified candidate for District 11.
