Republican Will Furry, the Flagler County School Board chair, announced in an Aug. 12 press release that he will run for the U.S. House of Representatives, District 6, in the 2026 election.
The seat in Congress is currently held by Republican Randy Fine, who won a special election on April 1 by a margin of 14 percentage points over Democrat Josh Weil. Michael Waltz had vacated the seat to serve in President Donald Trump’s administration.
Palm Coast City Councilman Charles Gambaro is also running for the District 6 seat. Gambaro announced his candidacy on July 31.
Furry has lived in Palm Coast with his wife and children for over a decade. He is a former business executive and entrepreneur. He was elected to the School Board in 2022 and was named board chair a year later.
The press release said Furry, “is launching his campaign to bring principled, results-driven leadership to Washington.”
“Faith, family and freedom are the foundation of our nation, and they must be protected,” Furry said in the press release. “I’m committed to defending our liberties and securing the border, especially for the families who’ve suffered unimaginable loss from the fentanyl crisis. District 6 deserves a leader who embodies the strength, values and spirit of our community.”
The press release said Furry is “a MAGA Republican and America First supporter” of President Trump.
“I’ve answered the call from the people of District 6 who want a representative that reflects their priorities, not someone who parachuted in and doesn’t know our community. I live here, I serve here. It’s about the Will of the People and I’m ready to take that fight to Washington,” he said.
