Official Profile
Religion: Christian — explicitly professed: 'I will choose God over humanism, our children and parents over indoctrination, and our brave law enforcement officers' (STARRS interview). Denomination not specified.
Background: Chandler Langevin — Brevard County native, Titusville High grad. ~10 years U.S. Navy Hospital Corpsman (FMF) attached to USMC — NATO Liaison with 4th ANGLICO in Afghanistan; sniper-platoon medic with 1st Bn 25th Marines in the Pacific. Took early honorable discharge over the Biden COVID vaccine mandate ('unwillingness to be a guinea pig'). Works in veteran advocacy; founded local youth program 'Florida Scouts'; State Director, American Restoration Coalition. Previously on Odyssey Charter School board (removed Oct 2025 over the censure controversy). Briefly filed for FL HD-33 in 2023 before withdrawing and endorsing Monique Miller. Active with Republican Liberty Caucus (Brevard chapter), Moms for Liberty (Brevard), and Space Coast Young Republicans. CENSURE / LITIGATION FACTS (recorded candidly per brand voice): On Oct 17, 2025 Palm Bay Council voted 3-2 to censure Langevin and ask Gov. DeSantis to suspend him under FS 112.51 after Langevin posted on X 'Deport every Indian immediately,' Confederate-soldier-praise posts including a description of Robert E. Lee as 'a Godly and honorable presence,' and a request on city letterhead asking President Trump to pardon white-nationalist activist Robert Rundo (founder of the Rise Above Movement). Langevin filed a federal First Amendment suit (Langevin v. Palm Bay) represented by Anthony Sabatini; bench trial began Jan 21, 2026.
[2026-06 RESOLUTE refinement] Web-verified sitting Seat 3 Councilman of Palm Bay as of June 2026 (palmbayfl.gov bio + Ballotpedia 2024 race + The Palm Bayer + multiple Oct 2025 censure / lawsuit reports). Sweep of palmbayfl.gov, chandlerlangevin.com, his Facebook + X (@ChandlerForPB), STARRS, FL Voice News, Space Coast Daily, The Space Coast Rocket, Hometown News Brevard, WFTV, ClickOrlando, Spectrum News 13 (mynews13), CFPublic, The Palm Bayer, RLC FL endorsement page, Florida Politics. PARTY CORRECTION applied (R — confirmed: self-identified 'Palm Bay Republican', ran R for FL HD-33 in 2023, RLC endorsee, Moms for Liberty + Space Coast Young Republicans active). HARD evidence — 6 TRUE / 1 FALSE / 23 NULL after exhaustive sweep. TRUE: christian_liberty.0 ('I will choose God over humanism' STARRS framing of public role as Christian-citizenship); family_child_sovereignty.1 (affirmative parental-rights framing 'our children and parents over indoctrination' + Odyssey Charter School board + founded Florida Scouts youth alternative + Moms for Liberty Brevard affiliation); public_justice.0 (campaign 'law and order' frame — 'Chandler will work with Palm Bay Police and Fire to ensure they are properly staffed, paid, highly equipped'; 90-day report praised PBPD as 'highest caliber I have seen' with commitment to expand presence; STARRS interview elevated 'brave law enforcement officers' as a core priority — affirmative advocacy beyond budget); refuse_state_overreach.2 (resigned from active military rather than comply with Biden COVID vaccination mandate; led successful Jan 2, 2025 5-0 city vote to permanently end Palm Bay fluoridation on bodily-autonomy grounds — 'We are force-medicating our entire population if we do this, and that's just not right. It's a personal choice... with any other medical decision, the government doesn't make that for you' — affirmative protection of citizens from health-mandate overreach); border_immigration.1 (repeated public posture demanding mandatory deportation: 'Deport every Indian immediately'; 'My message to end all illegal immigration and most legal immigration is critical to my constituents'; used city letterhead to advocate stricter immigration enforcement); border_immigration.2 (publicly opposes any sanctuary stance; calls for revoking H-1B visas and 'most legal immigration'; aligned with federal preemption); self_defense.0 (organized Sept 20 2025 Charlie Kirk memorial march at which he and others openly carried firearms — affirmative public exercise/normalization of FL constitutional-carry framework; RLC endorsement). FALSE — R-DEVIATION FLAG: economic_stewardship.2 (Sept 8 2025 millage vote — Langevin voted NAY on the LOWER 6.7000 rate because he wanted the HIGHER 6.7339 rate; the lone vote against the rate-cut, said he was 'not here to budge' or 'negotiate' — directionally opposite of fiscal-restraint cell as written, despite his stated 'keeping taxes down' philosophy; cited vote outweighs rhetoric per skill discipline). NULL HOLDS: sanctity_of_life ALL NULL — $300 donation from 'Faith Family Freedom Coalition' is donor inference not his statement. biblical_marriage ALL NULL — no Pride proclamation vote, drag-restriction vote, or pronoun-policy vote in his Palm Bay term; his broader 'anti-woke' framing is content-light. family_child_sovereignty q0/q2 NULL — no specific K-12 SOGI/CRT vote at council level. christian_liberty q3 NULL — no documented invocation-prayer defense vote. economic_stewardship q0/q1/q3 NULL. election_integrity ALL NULL. public_justice q1/q3/q4 NULL. refuse_state_overreach q0/q3/q4 NULL — COVID/fluoride is q2-coded already. border_immigration q0 NULL — no specific 287(g) procedural-author statement located (was sitting on the 5-0 vote but did not move it). self_defense q1 NULL — no specific AWB/mag-limit/red-flag floor vote. SOURCE-GAP NOTE: chandlerlangevin.com + hometownnewsbrevard.com candidate questionnaire pages returned 403/429 during sweep — a manual revisit could surface additional life/marriage/election-integrity cells.
