ORLANDO, Fla. —
The Commitment 2024 primary debate series continues with the Republican primary race for Florida’s House District 27.
>> Watch the debate above
Richard Gentry, Steve Shives and Beckie Sirolli are battling to win the Republican nomination to represent the parts of Marion, Lake and Volusia counties that make up the district.
The candidates shared their thoughts on ways to combat the insurance issues affecting the state, how they would deal with construction debris dumping, possible solutions to prevent the St. Johns River from flooding, as well as road and bridge projects the candidates would like to bring to their district.
Whoever lands the nomination following the Aug. 20 primary election will face off against the Democratic candidate, Andy Ferrari, and the Libertarian candidate, Dennis Simpson, in the November general election.
