Charles McBurney Biography

Charles McBurney is one of the most popular and richest Lawyer who was born on June 6, 1957 in Orlando, United States. Charles McBurney (born June 6 1957) is a Republican member of the Florida House of Representatives, which represents the 16th District which comprises portions of the city center Jacksonville in the southern part of Duval County, since 2007.

As of 2008 McBurney got elected for his second full term as well as second term in totality without opposition either in the general or primary elections. McBurney faced a primary opponent in 2010 by the name of Luis Melendez, whom he easily defeated by 84 percent of the vote. For the general elections, McBurney was up against independent presidential candidate David Baldwin, campaigning on his campaign premise that included “no frills budgeting” to allow for an increase in the funding for education without tax increases. He won another term without difficulty, beating Baldwin with 71 percent of the votes.

In November 2012, while McBurney and his wife were driving on Interstate 10 to Tallahassee for the legislative session, he was pulled over by Charles Swindle, a state trooper. Swindle alleged that McBurney was traveling at 87 miles per hour, exceeding the 70 mile per hour speed limit in the area, but, in an effort “to be nice,” Swindle decided to “cut [McBurney] a break” because he was a legislator and cite him only for not having proof of insurance. McBurney, in turn, claimed that his proof of insurance was not requested by Swindle nor was he traveling over the speed limit, and filed a complaint with David Brierton, the Director of the Florida Highway Patrol. The Highway Patrol then terminated Swindle’s position for “conduct unbecoming a public employee.” Following his termination, Swindle requested a hearing before the Public Employee Relations Commission to attempt to regain his position. The hearing officer recommended that Swindle be reinstated, and noted that a separate system existed for the treatment of lawmakers by Highway Patrol officers, which “is discussed at the training academy for new troopers, is reinforced by supervisors, and is informally discussed among other employees.” The First Court of Appeal upheld the Florida Public Employees Relations Commission ruling that Swindle should serve 120 hours (four weeks) suspension.

When legislative districts were reconfigured in 2012, McBurney remained in the 16th District, the composition of which did not significantly change. He won re-election without any opposition in the Republican primary or the general election.

In 2007 Mahon had been appointed by the then-Governor Charlie Crist to serve as an Judge on the 4th Judicial Circuit, thus the seat was removed and it became necessary to hold an election special to succeed Mahon. McBurney participated for the position of succeeding Mahon. For the Republican primaryelection, he fought the former city councilman from Jacksonville Lad Daniels, who came in the news for allegedly in violation of open meetings laws while in the City Council and for misleading voters into thinking that the city’s firefighter and police unions were in favor of the candidate. McBurney won in the race against Daniels by a large margin, securing 63 percent of the votes and progressing to the general election, in which He was up against Debra-Jahns-Nelsen who was the Democratic candidate. Because of the conservative character of the district McBurney beat Nelsen in a decisive manner with 79% of votes.
