Dave Eggers re-elected, Pat Gerard to face Brian Scott Pinellas County Commission

Pinellas County Commissioner Dave Eggers won re-election to his District 4 seat Tuesday, setting him up to serve another four-year term.

Fellow Commissioner Pat Gerard, on the other hand, is now set to face Republican Brian Scott in the upcoming November General Election.

Eggers, a Republican, took a whopping 68% of the vote against only one challenger, fellow Republican Heather Aynne Vernillo, who collected 32% of the vote.

Scott was the victor of District 2’s Republican Primary, collecting 66% of the vote to opponent Debbie Buschman’s 33%. Now, he’ll face Democrat Gerard, who has held the District 2 seat since 2014.
