elected officials are paid.
Florida sets the base salary of every county sheriff, commissioner, clerk, property appraiser, tax collector and supervisor of elections by a formula tied to population. Pick an office, then a county.
Stronger color means higher pay for the office selected. Groups are fifths of the 67 counties.
