The People's Sheriff
I prioritize people over politics, focusing on grassroots issues. Together, we will be making history as I will be the first sheriff in the state of Florida to donate half of my salary back to the community in year one.
I am committed to helping our community and organizations by supporting safety, aiding veterans, combating homelessness, addressing mental health awareness, breast cancer, and cancer awareness, and supporting families with disabilities and autism, all while fostering unity.
Additionally, I will establish more youth programs and prioritize cracking down on gang violence, fentanyl, and other illicit drugs while removing illegal guns from our streets. Protecting our beaches and borders is important to our community’s safety, and school safety is paramount.
I back the blue and support the Second Amendment 100%.
I’m a very proactive individual and a successful businessman. My previous affiliation was with the Republican party; I am now running as a Democrat in this local election. I can relate to both parties, and that is the reason why I am the best candidate for the job. I am here for ALL people regardless of party affiliation. My foremost commitment is to the safety and well-being of our community.

Letter from Giordano
As the new sheriff, I plan to implement several policies aimed at reducing the number of repeat offenders in our county jail. By introducing various programs and initiatives, we can help lower the jail population, which will save taxpayer dollars in the long run.
Additionally, I will be personally contributing a portion of my salary in the first year of being sheriff to help with veterans’ assistance, homelessness, mental health awareness, youth programs, breast cancer support, and aiding families with disabilities. By addressing these issues early on, we can prevent them from escalating and resulting in criminal behavior.
To further cut down on unnecessary spending, I will implement measures to reduce budget costs across the board. This will ensure that our resources are being used effectively and efficiently. Furthermore, I will maintain an open-door policy for both residents and employees within the Sheriff’s Department. By encouraging open communication and transparency, we can foster a safe and productive environment for everyone involved.
