The primary election race for Santa Rosa County Commission District 2 is a bit of an oddity. Two current Santa Rosa County Commissioners are squaring off to represent District 2. Bob Cole currently sits in the District 2 seat, while Jim Melvin represents District 4. When district lines were redrawn based on the 2010 Census, Melvin’s home became part of District 2, so he could not seek reelection in District 4.
