About
Frank J. Russo is a candidate for governor of Florida and a lifelong Floridian. One of eleven children, he says his upbringing in a working-class, faith-centered family shaped his focus on children, families, seniors, veterans, and people facing financial hardship. Russo created the Queen’s Gambit Castle as a public symbol of property rights, personal freedom, and opposition to government overreach. His campaign centers on “Humanity Over the Dollar,” an approach that prioritizes community well-being over profit.
