Secretary of State certifies Daryl Campbell's win in HD 94, clearing the way to his swearing-in [View all]

House Democrats will add a 41st member this Legislative Session after all, according to the latest news from the Secretary of State’s office.

Daryl Campbell, elected Jan. 11 to represent House District 94 and succeed former Rep. Bobby DuBose, will be seated next week. This comes after two weeks of questions about when — and whether — it would happen.

“We’re certified to go — I’m thankful for the amount of support that was put into making sure that I get seated,” Campbell said. “I got to see a united front come together and now we have 175,000 people who will get representation in Tallahassee.”

Campbell, whose district covers parts of Fort Lauderdale, Plantation and Wilton Manors, won 40% of the vote in a four-way Primary Election. No other parties fielded candidates in the race, so the March 8 General Election was rendered moot.
