Highland Beach Republican Rep. Peggy Gossett-Seidman is officially kicking off her 2024 re-election campaign later this month, and she's attracted an impressive roster of political notables to host an event marking the occasion.
Gossett-Seidman's campaign kickoff and fundraiser is happening on May 30 at Biergarten Boca, an authentic German and American bar-restaurant three miles from her district office.
Close to 50 political players are on her Host Committee to ensure things go off without a hitch.
Among them: Miami Sen. Ana Maria Rodriguez and Reps. Jennifer Canady of Lakeland, Mike Caruso of Delray Beach, Vicki Lopez of Miami, Dana Trabulsy of Fort Pierce, Toby Overdorf of Palm City, Rick Roth of West Palm Beach, Jim Mooney of Islamorada, Chip LaMarca of Lighthouse Point and John Snyder of Stuart.
Boca Raton Mayor Scott Singer, Highland Beach Mayor Natasha Moore, Highland Beach Vice Mayor David Stern and Boca Raton Council member Marc Wigder are also on the committee.
The full list can be viewed in a PDF below.
Gossett-Seidman ended the 2024 Session with legislative victories on which she can campaign for re-election. She passed a measure to protect voters from errantly having their voting registration changed while renewing their driver's licenses and a bipartisan bill called the "Safe Waterways Act" to streamline contamination reporting.
Her most headline-grabbing legislation was another product of bipartisanship that Gov. Ron DeSantis held a press conference to commemorate: a narrowly tailored measure to ease the unsealing of grand jury records from a 2006 case against Jeffrey Epstein that, like the other two bills, won unanimous support from both chambers of the Legislature.
Gossett-Seidman is set to face the winner of a two-person Democratic Primary in House District 91 between lawyer Jay Shooster and insurance agent Michaelangelo Hamilton.
HD 91 covers a southern portion of Palm Beach County including Boca Raton and parts of Highland Beach and West Boca. Previously a dependable Democratic stronghold, the district grew more conservative after redistricting in 2022.
The Primary election is on Aug. 20, followed by the General Election on Nov. 5.
Gossett-Seidman's campaign kickoff at the Biergarten Boca on May 30 starts at 6 p.m. Her campaign is asking that attendees RSVP by email at PeggyForHD91@Gmail.com.
