John Cortes Biography

John Cortes is one of the most popular and richest Politician who was born on March 25, 1961 in Brooklyn, New York, United States.

John Cortes (born March 25, 1961) is a Democratic politician who currently serves as a member of the Florida House of Representatives, representing the 43rd District, which is based in northern Osceola County, and includes Buenaventura Lakes, Campbell, Kissimmee, and Poinciana, since 2014.

In 2012, Cortes initially planned on running for the Florida House of Representatives from the 43rd District in the Democratic primary, but dropped out, leaving Ricardo Rangel as the uncontested nominee. Cortes challenged Rangel in the Democratic primary in 2014, and, in a “major upset,” defeated Rangel for re-election, winning 52% of the vote to Rangel’s 48%. In the general election, Cortes raced former Kissimmee City Commissioner Carlos Irizarry, whom he had previously been defeated by in his 2004 city commission campaign. The Orlando Sentinel criticized both candidates, asserting that “both candidates have bankruptcies in their pasts” and that “both have had troubling brushes with the law,” but gave a “qualified nod to Irizarry for his experience in government, and his deeper knowledge of the issues he would face as a member of the Legislature.” Despite the Sentinel’s criticism, however, Cortes defeated Irizarry handily, winning 66% of the vote to Irizarry’s 34%.

In 2004, Cortes ran for the Kissimmee City Commission from Seat 3, and placed second to Jerry Gemskie in the general election, receiving 22% of the vote to Gemskie’s 24%. Because no candidate received a majority, a runoff election was held in which Cortes lost to Gemskie in a landslide, winning only 33% of the vote. He ran for Mayor of Kissimmee in 2006, and, once again, because no candidate received a majority, Cortes advanced to a runoff election with former City Commissioner Jim Swan, who beat Cortes handily. When Swan ran for re-election in 2008, Cortes ran against him again, but was defeated convincingly, receiving only 26% of the vote to Swan’s 58%. He ran for the City Commission from Seat 2 in 2010, but placed last, winning only 9% of the vote.
