Endorsements

Morning Jim…”Grace to you and peace.” I have always enjoyed Paul’s salutations in his letters. He seemed to start his presentations with the relaxing words of appreciation of his audience.

I would like to be the first to give thanks to God for you in your pursuit to represent the people. Thank you sincerely for your consistency and labor for the truth and betterment of our community.

Thanks to our beloved God for you. I must believe only God could give you the Spirit and Conviction you have, to serve his children. You know very well of the opposition you will face.

Opposition with greed, flattering words and empty promises. In the dark rooms and in the light of day, they will stone you with lies and false accusations of your intentions.

I feel strongly that you do not seek glory or praise for the passion you have for the betterment of our community.

Even though you do not boast of your doctrine ability, you demonstrate the learned ability to analyze and diagnose the symptoms and the “HOW” to repair the community of its illnesses.

As Paul of the past, you have come to the people more than once and have been thwarted by the opposition.

Your faith and dedication has you once again coming to the aid of the people. May the strength of God lead you to “Victory.”

I pray to Jesus our Lord, that the people will open their hearts and ears to your words. I thank God almighty for one that I can call a friend.

Your friend, and Grace and Peace to you,

Rod (Hot Rod) Gaudin

"I've known Jim Davison for years and give him my full endorsement. In his career as an ER Doctor he has saved countless lives. He cares for others as a matter of habit. I met him as an opponent candidate for Tampa City Council, and when he saw me struggling with a large campaign sign blown down by strong winds, he selflessly came to my aid to put the sign up! Because he has been on Hillsborough County volunteer boards for over 20 years, he knows more about Hillsborough County's Government inner working and transportation plans than anyone else I know. If you want a trustworthy, kind and competent representative, who will fight to reduce the cost and increase the efficiency of running Hillsborough County's government, vote for Jim.".

I was happy to hear that Dr. Davison is running for public office, especially for Hillsborough County Commissioner District 6 Countywide as our Republican candidate.

I am proud to endorse his candidacy and support him in his campaign as much as I can. One of a kind candidate - educated, knowledgeable and experienced regarding what is going on in our county. Through the years, Dr. Davison has been actively involved in many infrastructure projects in Hillsborough County. He has worked with previous administrators and has managed to keep his name as a professional public servant. In his career as a doctor, he understands how important each person is. His closeness to the individual shows that he can serve the residents of our vast county.

We need to elect Dr. Davison for the future of Hillsborough County – for us, not for him. Vote Jim Davison for Hillsborough County Board of Commissioners, District 6.

I have known Dr Davison since the 1990’s when he was advocating for transportation improvements in his community of New Tampa. I, as the chairman of the Hillsborough County MPO saw firsthand the integrity and passion he had for his community. As a former Plant City Commissioner, Florida State Representative and retired US AirForce colonel I can attest to Dr Davison’s conservative principles and experience to get the job done. I wholeheartedly endorse his candidacy as our next Republican Hillsborough County-wide Commissioner District 6.

I am proud to endorse Jim Davison as the next Hillsborough County Commissioner for District 6!! As a former candidate myself, I understand the challenges he is facing and I know Jim is more than capable of taking on the tasks ahead. Jim has been a Physician for over 35 years and has worked in emergency rooms across this county. He is a stoic individual and level headed, someone who is capable of making decisions without his emotions overriding his ability to reason. Over the years, Jim has often offered answers to the issues of the day, ie: transportation, taxes, shrinking the government. He is always approachable and will not shut off supporters after being elected. He will never serve special interest groups or their money over the interest of the citizens. Jim will put forth ideas and proposals to meet the situations of the future without increasing our taxes. It is time to tighten the belt! — Chase Harrison
Former Candidate Hillsborough County Commissioner

As an Emergency Room doctor, Jim Davison is accustomed to quickly diagnosing problems and providing relief to patients who show up in the ER. I have known Jim for many years and can vouch for his conservative Republican principles. I believe he has accurately diagnosed transportation and spending issues in Hillsborough County so when elected to the Hillsborough County Commission, Dr. Jim Davison will provide a solid remedy to improve our roads without raising taxes. — Karen Jaroch
Director, Fix Our Roads First

I have worked along side Jim since I first moved to New Tampa in 1998. For the last 25 years I have watched Jim work tirelessly on behalf of his fellow citizens to improve local government. Whether it was for the Cross Creek flyover, Safe Sidewalks for Students, Proper Maintenance of our Roads and Transportation Infrastructure, fighting against the Transit Sales Tax to benefit Downtown Developers or the endless hours he has taken to study the County Budget no one is more prepared to fight for the citizens of Hillsborough County! Jim has been a leader for a quarter century fighting for the people by regularly attending BOCC meetings, serving on Citizen Advisory Committees and giving his 2 minutes of testimony. Personally, Jim is a Doctor, and as a Doctor he understands the importance of thoughtful consideration as to the identication of what ailments we have, as a community, and the key to a successful treatment is the RIGHT Diagnosis! It is beyond time to VOTE JIM DAVISON to represent us on the BOCC! — Thomas Gaitens
