if counties in Florida are like certain Northern states there are agreements in place between the two parties to run or not run in some districts. Granted in some there is no point to run but then that is an area where its allowed to give the other guy face time.
Watching my cousin go over the ins and outs of moving from city to county was more than enlightening for me, as in frustrating and aggravating. For the most part who gets the seat is all about connections or worse, to get someone out of the way to a place many will think them harmless. There is also "owed a seat" mentality.
tl;dr two party politics has got to go. the level of manipulation at the local level is shocking and more widespread than many understand. there are break out candidates but even some of them are engineered
