2024 Candidate Profiles

Welcome to VoxPopuli's 2024 General Election Candidates page. Here, we've included new information on candidates running in the highly controversial state attorney's race for Orange and Osceola counties, state races for House Districts 39, 40 and 45 as well as Senate District 13 . We've also taken a close look at who's up for retention on the Florida Supreme Court, examined the pros and cons of the six Constitutional Amendments on the ballot and updated some of the runoffs we're following. Endorsements are coming soon. ​

Remember to request your mail-in ballot by Oct. 24, and make a plan to vote!

On Aug. 16, Chief Judge Lisa Munyon of the Ninth Circuit Court removed independent candidate Cynthia Harris from the ballot for improperly paying her qualifying fee. All ballots cast in the Democratic primary election were voided, and the Democratic primary was canceled. This race is now open to all voters.

Orange County Commission District 1 — Nonpartisan RUNOFF
 

A write-in candidate who raised no money and did not campaign received 15 votes, denying both Nicole Wilson and Austin Arthur the more than 50 percent of the votes necessary to win the primary. Now they go head to head in the general election.

None of the candidates received more than 50 percent of the votes in the primary, and so the top two vote-getters are facing each other in a runoff.
