Democrat Brian Nathan, Vice President of the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers local 915, is the first Democrat to file for the Senate District 14 Special Election.
The seat was vacated this week after previous officeholder Jay Collins, a Republican, was appointed Lieutenant Governor.
Nathan is a Navy veteran and Orlando native who moved to Tampa in 2008 after his military career concluded. He attended Hillsborough Community College and earned his undergraduate degrees in philosophy and sociology from the University of Tampa.
Perennial candidate Amaro Lionheart, a Republican, is also filed. A date hasn’t been set for the Special Election.
