Davis is one of nearly ten people running for Jacksonville mayor in the city’s March election. He and fellow Republican LeAnna Cumber are the current leaders in the race and have divided up many of the conservative endorsements in the area.

Davis won the “most coveted endorsement in the city” when the Fraternal Order of Police announced its support.
