State Attorney Bill Gladson is endorsing Matt McClain for another term in District 3 of the Marion County Commission.
Gladson was elected State Attorney for Florida's 5th Judicial Circuit in November 2020. He is a former law enforcement officer and career prosecutor with over 20 years of trial experience. As State Attorney, Gladson leads a team of more than 250 workers who serve the citizens of Citrus, Hernando, Lake, Marion and Sumter counties.
"Matt McClain is in the best position to continue leading and serving Marion County on the Board of Commissioners," Gladson said. "Since his appointment by Gov. DeSantis, Matt has worked hard to earn the trust of the community by putting resident safety first, supporting local law enforcement, and protecting our conservative values.
"He is fully committed to upholding the rule of law and doing what's best for the Floridians he serves. I'm proud to endorse him in his election campaign for County Commissioner and look forward to our continued collaboration."
McClain responded, "I'm grateful to have the endorsement of State Attorney Bill Gladson in my race for Marion County Commissioner. Over the last four years, Bill has done great work in our community as State Attorney to seek justice and maintain law and order.
"Public safety has become a top priority for many Florida families with the influx of illegals from our southern border, and it is imperative that we work together to support our law enforcement to keep our neighborhoods safe. I would be honored to continue working alongside Attorney Gladson to protect our residents and businesses here in Marion County."
McClain was appointed to the Marion County Commission by DeSantis in September 2023. He previously worked as a Chief Legislative Aide in the state House and Senate.
