Randy Enwright

Randy Enwright is co-founder of Enwright Rimes. Randy founded EM Campaigns in the fall of 2003 after more than two decades in campaign and political party management. In 2017, as EM Campaigns was starting its 14th year, Randy and his long-time business partner Jim Rimes decided to rename the company Enwright Rimes. The firm continues to successfully specialize in planning and executing winning campaigns.

Randy’s reputation for integrity and success has propelled him to the top of Republican politics in Florida and around the country. Over the last two decades, Randy has been a key strategist for many important issues moving through the Florida Legislature. Under his leadership, the company helped lead the effort to deregulate the telecommunication industry, reform tort laws, and maintain the Hurricane Sales Tax Holiday.

Randy’s extensive career in campaign management and political consulting began in the early 1980s. He managed the 1988 George Bush for President Campaign in Missouri, and served as Political Director of the Missouri Republican Party.

Additionally, Randy served terms as the Executive Director of both the Republican Party of Iowa and the Republican Party of Florida. Under Randy’s guidance, both state parties set fundraising records along the way to exceptional electoral success. In fact, with Randy at the helm of the Republican Party of Florida, the Sunshine State became the first southern state since reconstruction to gain Republican control of both the executive and the legislative branches. Randy also served as a Regional Political Director for the Republican National Committee, a position that took him to several states throughout the Midwest and the South.

Given Florida’s critical nature in presidential politics, for most of the past decade Randy has served as a senior advisor to the Republican National Committee, specifically covering Florida. Randy played a key role in the successful campaigns of former Governor Jeb Bush and President George W. Bush, as well as the campaigns of Attorney General Bill McCollum, Congressmen Bilirakis, Gaetz, and Rooney, and State Senators Don Gaetz, Kathleen Passidomo, and Joe Negron.

Randy continues to work closely with the state and national party, helping to coordinate the voter contact programs and overall strategy.

Randy and his wife Karla reside in Tallahassee. The couple has two children, Marina and Brody.
