Sen. Nick DiCeglie, himself a former state Representative, is endorsing St. Petersburg City Council member Ed Montanari for House District 60.
Montanari, a Republican, is running for the St. Pete-based district in hopes of unseating Democrat Lindsay Cross.
“I’ve worked with Council Member Montanari for years and witnessed firsthand the proven leadership he delivers to St. Petersburg,” DiCeglie said in a written statement. “I look forward to working as a partner with Ed in the Florida Legislature as he brings his common-sense approach to addressing important issues like water quality, inflation and the insurance crisis.”
Montanari called DiCeglie’s endorsement an honor.
