"Miner came within an inch of winning outright, falling short by only a few votes. He no doubt earned his considerable support for his lengthy record of community service and dedication to children and public education. For the past 12 years, the Bradenton attorney has been a fixture at school board meetings as a tireless advocate for financial accountability and transparency."
