Josie Tomkow

Josie Taylor Tomkow (born October 15, 1995) is an American politician who served in the Florida Legislature in the 39th district from 2018 to 2022 and the 51st district from 2022 to 2026 in the Florida House of Representatives. She is a member of the Republican Party.

Florida House of Representatives Tomkow defeated Jennifer Spath in a special Republican primary for the vacant 39th House district seat on February 20, 2018. Tomkow then won the May 1, 2018 special election, defeating Democrat Ricky Shirah with 59.9% of the vote. At the time of her election to the House, Tomkow was 22 years old.

Tomkow again defeated Shirah by a similar margin in the November 6, 2018 general election.

Based on a review of 2018 traffic citations, questions have been raised whether Tomkow meets residency requirements to hold her seat.

In the 2022 Florida House of Representatives election, she was elected in Florida's 51st House of Representatives district.

In November 2025 Tomkow announced her intent to resign from the Florida House of Representatives in order to run in a special election for the Florida Senate in District 14. In this special election, she lost to Democrat Brian Nathan. She has said she will run again in the general election in November.
