Republican Party of Florida Vice Chair Blaise Ingoglia announced Thursday evening he will not be seeking the chairman position within the party, crossing another name off the list of potential candidates to replace chairman Lenny Curry.

"I would personally like to thank Chairman Lenny Curry for his service to our state party and his dedication to grassroots Republicans across Florida," wrote Ingoglia in a statement. "Lenny has my support in his run for mayor of Jacksonville and I wish him nothing but success in the future.

"I will continue to run an effective campaign to be the next state representative from District 35, serving the people of Hernando County. I also remain committed to serving as the vice chairman of the Republican Party of Florida as we continue our tireless work toward the re-election of Gov. Rick Scott, Attorney General Pam Bondi, Commissioner of Agriculture Adam Putnam, CFO Jeff Atwater, our House and Senate members and candidates, and those running for elected office throughout this great state."

Curry will step down from the position effective May 31 and will pursue a mayoral bid in Jacksonville.
