Andrew Demetric Gillum (born July 26, 1979) is a former American politician who was the 126th mayor of Tallahassee, Florida, from 2014 to 2018. A member of the Democratic Party, he served as a Tallahassee city commissioner from 2003 to 2014. Gillum was the Democratic nominee in the 2018 Florida gubernatorial election, defeating a crowded Democratic field and narrowly losing to Republican congressman Ron DeSantis in the general election. His margin of defeat – 34,000 votes (0.4% of the vote) – is one of the closest for a gubernatorial race in modern American history. In 2020, Gillum underwent drug rehabilitation after police found him inebriated in a hotel room with a male escort and another man. In 2022, Gillum was indicted for allegedly diverting campaign funds to a company controlled by one of his top advisors. The jury found Gillum not guilty on a charge of making false statements and was hung on the remaining counts, which were later dismissed. In July 2026, Gillum was arrested in Alabama on drug possession charges. He was released shortly thereafter but was taken back into custody on August 6, 2026, after missing a required drug test and subsequently testing positive for methamphetamine.
