Steven Giordano, the Democratic candidate for St. Lucie County Sheriff, has announced his candidacy with a clear and compelling message: “People over Politics.” His campaign centers on rebuilding trust between law enforcement and the community by prioritizing transparency, accountability, and the well-being of St. Lucie County residents. Giordano offers a fresh approach to meaningful reform within the Sheriff’s Office.
Giordano sets himself apart from his opponent for St. Lucie County Sheriff through his commitment to modernizing law enforcement, fostering open communication, and strengthening collaboration between the Sheriff’s Office, other surrounding agencies, and the community.
“Our community deserves a sheriff who puts people first, not politics. My goal is to bridge the divide between law enforcement and the people we serve, creating a partnership built on trust, integrity, and accountability," said Giordano.
Key elements of his platform include expanding mental health resources, addressing substance abuse reform, and enhancing officer training and education to promote fairness and transparency. Giordano also advocates for advanced crisis intervention strategies to ensure officers can professionally manage situations involving mental health crises and individuals with disabilities.
A cornerstone of Giordano's campaign is his dedication to increasing transparency and rebuilding public trust. He supports the mandatory use of body-worn cameras for all officers and proposes regular public forums to facilitate open dialogue between law enforcement and residents. As sheriff, Giordano pledges to fully implement these initiatives to strengthen accountability across the department.
“By fostering a culture of accountability, we can create a stronger and more united St. Lucie County,” said a campaign spokesperson. Giordano emphasizes that law enforcement professionals must be well-trained, educated, and held to the highest standards. "Our priority is safety. We want to ensure that St. Lucie County has the best-trained deputies in the state."
Giordano’s deep commitment to community engagement distinguishes him. He regularly collaborates with local businesses, community leaders, and faith organizations to develop impactful programs and has built strong relationships with St. Lucie County residents. With a decade of service in the St. Lucie County Sheriff’s Office and extensive law enforcement experience, Giordano's close ties to the community position him as an ideal St. Lucie County sheriff candidate.
The Steven "Gio" Giordano for Sheriff campaign has received significant support, with endorsements from local business leaders, community figures, and both Republican and Democratic sheriff candidates, but most importantly, from St. Lucie County residents. Giordano is not a career politician but a dedicated public servant who has served the community since 1989. A proud graduate of local public schools—including Parkway Elementary, Forest Grove Middle, Westwood High, Centennial High School, and IRCC (Indian River Community College)—his deep roots in the area are evident.
Giordano has pledged to donate half of his first-year salary as sheriff to support critical community initiatives—an unprecedented commitment among sheriffs in Florida. His focus will be on aiding veterans, addressing homelessness, supporting families with disabilities, raising mental health awareness, increasing cancer awareness, and expanding youth programs. Giordano aims to redefine the role of the sheriff by positioning St. Lucie County for long-term success.
For voters seeking to make an informed decision, Giordano’s experience, dedication, and vision for public service demonstrate his strong commitment to leading with transparency and accountability.
