Lenny Curry Chosen to Lead RPOF

As expected, the Republican Party of Florida (RPOF) elected Lenny Curry of Duval County to be its chairman in a meeting held in Orlando.

On Friday night, the RPOFs state executive committee unanimously backed Curry to replace the late Dave Bitner. Curry, who had been vice chairman under Bitner, had been serving as interim chairman since that time. Also on Friday night, Blaise Ingoglia of Hernando County was chosen to replace Curry as vice chairman.
