Terrance Freeman (R) will leave Jax City Council in November; special election set
Jacksonville will hold a special election in August to replace City Council member Terrance Freeman, who will resign later this year to run for the Florida House.
Voters will head to the polls Aug. 18 to fill the vacancy in Freeman’s At-Large Group 1 seat, according to a news release Friday from the Duval County Supervisor of Elections Office.
Freeman, a second-term Republican, started his bid for Florida House District 12 in October, vying to replace term-limited GOP Rep. Wyman Duggan. Florida statute requires a sitting elected official to resign to run for another office.
Freeman is currently unopposed in that race.
