Hardee Commission District 4 finished August 18 — Melendy is not a November oval
Wauchula is the county seat. The live Florida file has zero Hardee-only November 3 races. The two-way Republican field that used to pad this landing — Russell Melendy versus William Bergens for Hardee County Commission District 4 — ended August 18 as a Universal Primary Contest. Official ENR HAR/3946: Melendy elected 51.61 percent (1,523); Bergens 48.39 percent (1,428). We will not invent a November opponent, and we will not list Melendy as a November oval. Those cards are not on the live November 3 file we quote here.
What a Hardee voter still decides November 3
Statewide governor, U.S. Senate, cabinet, and any House district the Supervisor printed. Those cards live in the interactive guide for Hardee. 10th Circuit Groups 23 and 24 that used to pad this landing are not on the live November 3 file. If your hardeecountyelections.com PDF still prints a local name we do not list, the PDF governs.
