Seiler, Ring to lead Broward delegation in 2008
The Broward legislative delegation voted Thursday to name Rep. Jack Seiler, D-Wilton Manors, the delegation's chairman. The delegation also voted to make Sen. Jeremy Ring, D-Margate, the delegation vice chairman.
Seiler and Ring will lead the largely Democratic, 25-member delegation. Seiler served as this year's delegation vice chairman. He will replace this year's chairwoman, Sen. Nan Rich, D-Weston.
During the nomination, delegation members praised Seiler's dedication and humble, "quiet leadership."
"When Rep. Seiler speaks...people listen," said Sen. Steve Geller, D-Cooper City. "His words are valued in Tallahassee. His ideas are valued in Tallahassee."
The delegation also used the meeting at the Broward County Government Center in Fort Lauderdale to honor former state Rep. Mike Davis, who died of cancer earlier this year.
"I think we can all agree he was an example of a compassionate person, who cared deeply about his public service and he did it in a very quiet, dignified way," Rich said.
A special election for the seat is set for Nov. 20.
