Former city council candidate Julie Jenkins and former county commissioner Tom Scott are backing Gwen Miller in her re-election bid.

Jenkins ran against Miller for the citywide District 1 spot but did not receive enough votes to qualify for the March 27 runoff. In a news release, Jenkins said Miller is committed to regional transportation, government efficiency, economic development and the environment.

Scott ran successfully for the District 5 city council seat - the East Tampa seat once held by Miller.

“She’s the best qualified candidate,” Scott said Monday. “It would be prudent to have someone calm, to have someone rational, to have someone with experience on the council.”

Miller faces Joe Redner.
