What Others Are Saying about Kathryn!

“I support Kathryn Starkey for Florida House District 45 because of her outstanding public office record. Her experience on the Southwest Florida Water Management District, Pinellas Anclote River Basin Board and on the Pasco County School Board prepared her to deal with two of Florida's most important public policy challenges, environment and education.”

Governor Bob Martinez
December 21, 2009


“Kathryn is high energy with tested leadership abilities. She will put her district and constituents first”.

Ann Hildebrand
Pasco County Commissioner


“Kathryn is thoughtful, smart and action oriented. She will be an excellent legislator. She is a talented public official who walks with integrity, completes her homework and listens with a good ear to others before she takes action.”

Sallie Parks
Former Pinellas County Commissioner, SWFWMD Governing Board


“I have known Kathryn for a number of years and have watched her work on public policy issues for our community, region and state at several levels.

When confronted with an issue, she does her own research (not simply listen to one party who may have an agenda), carefully looking at how the issue impacts people, resources and our community. She then meets with and discusses options with a diverse group before making a decision on the policy issue.

This conservative, thoughtful and focused process produces an outcome that is the best for the community, and not necessarily within political favor. Kathryn will be an exceptional addition to the State House and will work hard to fight for and to protect the quality of life that we hold so dear in this State."

Ronnie Duncan
Former Pinellas County Commissioner


"As the former Tax Collector of Pinellas County I would like to add my personal endorsement to your election to the House of Representatives District 45, State of Florida."

W. Fred Petty
Former Tax Collector, Pinellas County
Chairman Legislative Committee, Pinellas County Farm Bureau


Mayor Baker, while offering his endorsement of Kathryn, spoke of her great ideas for moving Florida forward to economic stability, educational improvements and planning for our future in the areas of transportation, growth and natural resources. He believes she has the enthusiasm necessary to implement conservative solutions and the experience necessary to get things done.

Honorable Rick Baker, Mayor of St. Petersburg

“I am happy to endorse Kathryn Starkey in her campaign for the Florida House of Representatives, District 45.

I have known Kathryn for many years and can attest to her dedication to our community. I have worked with Kathryn on the School Board of Pasco County for 6 years and I have seen the commitment she has to the education system. Kathryn is always in attendance and always prepared. She does her homework, knows the issues and she knows how to get results.

I am confident she will take her knowledge and dedication to Tallahassee and be a strong representative for the people of District 45.”

Frank Parker
Chairman, Pasco County School Board
District 5


“It has been my honor to join with Kathryn Starkey in a variety of community service areas.

From her work as a member of our citizens advisory committee for growth management, to her dedicated service as a school board member, she has proven herself to be a tireless advocate for improving our quality of life. Her passion, energy and vision are contagious. Integrity, compassion and family are her foundation.

Kathryn has a proven record of dedicated community service and will represent us with honor.”

Allen Altman
Vice Chair, Pasco County School Board
District 1


“When I think of you these are the traits that will make you an outstanding representative:

Kathryn works tirelessly to improve the quality of life for citizens in this region.

Kathryn makes good things happen. She has organized many fundraisers for worthwhile causes and is actively involved in many charitable organizations.

As a school board member, Kathryn is always prepared for the board meetings. She researches issues and contributes ideas that will help to improve our schools. She builds consensus for the board to make the right decisions.

Kathryn loves to meet new people and learn about new ideas that will help to improve our schools.

She uses her creative energy and people skills to actively involve others in projects to benefit our students and our schools.”

Joanne Hurley
Pasco County School Board Member

“Thank you for leading the charge to bring Career Academies to Pasco County Schools… In August, I joined the CORE Culinary Committee for The Academy of Culinary Arts at Land O Lakes HS. The meetings and planning have come together quite well for the creation of a world-class education and more importantly graduating culinary arts facility in Pasco County. … CORE committee is all about keeping students interested in their education, keeping them interested so they graduate and afford them the opportunity to learn a life skill where they can earn a good paying wage or continue their life-long learning after they graduate.

I’m very excited to be on the LOL-HS CORE Culinary Committee …I know you’ll be proud of the work, the plan and more importantly the vision that you had, come to fruition to build world class educational facilities right here in Pasco.

You definitely have my endorsement for your campaign for the Florida House of Representatives, District 45.”


Best regards,

Having had an in depth conversation with Pasco School Committee Member Kathryn Starkey, I was refreshed by the breadth and depth of understanding this particular politician possessed on a plethora of subjects important to the constituents she serves.

This lady is a talented and multifaceted thinker, and I came away from the conversation very impressed.......thought you may like to know.

I am supporting Kathryn Starkey for all the right reasons. Number one she is highly qualified. She is honest, trustworthy, loyal. She loves and cares for her family, as well as mine and yours. She will make district 45 and
Florida a better place to live. She will stand for what she believes in.
Her decisions will not be based on her own personal agenda. We need people in Tallahassee we can trust. I trust Kathryn Starkey.

Debbie Vosburgh

“She’s an excellent candidate,” said State Rep. John Legg of New Port Richey, who serves in neighboring House District 46. “She’s well known, she knows the issues.”

St. Petersburg Times

“Please accept this letter as my recommendation for Ms. Kathryn Starkey. She has been a longtime landowner and rancher in the Tampa Bay Area. Over the years, she has become a well-known and respected community leader who has had a positive impact on a wide range of issues. Ms. Starkey is known to be very deliberate and judicious on environmental concerns and will be a positive voice for this Board.”
