Traci Koster (born June 15, 1985)[1] is an attorney and politician who is the state representative for District 64 in Florida. A Republican, she was elected in 2020.[2] The district covers parts of Hillsborough County and Pinellas County.[3]

Early life and education[edit]

Born in Greensboro, North Carolina, Koster was raised in Pinellas and Hillsborough County, Florida.[4][5] She graduated from Tarpon Springs High School.[6] She earned a Bachelor of Science degree in legal studies from the University of Central Florida and a Juris Doctor from the Stetson University College of Law.[7] Koster is a family law attorney.

Political career[edit]

When incumbent Republican J. W. Grant resigned from the Florida House after being appointed Florida's chief information officer by Governor Ron DeSantis, Republican leaders in Pinellas and Hillsborough Counties designated Koster as Grant's replacement on the 2020 ballot.[8][9] In the November general election, Koster defeated Democratic nominee Jessica Harrington.[10]
