David Floyd


David W. Floyd is an American politician and a former Republican member of the Kentucky House of Representatives for District 50. Floyd dropped out after filing for re-election in 2016 when Republican Chad McCoy challenged Floyd in the primary. Floyd was later appointed to be KY House Chief of Staff in 2018, after which controversy arose over his campaign contributions to his new boss Speaker David Osborne who appointed him. Floyd was known for pushing to abolish the Death Penalty in Kentucky even though his home district of Nelson County and the state overwhelmingly supports the Death Penalty in capital murder cases.
Floyd earned his BS from the United States Air Force Academy, and his MA in aeronautics from Embry–Riddle Aeronautical University.
