Al Jacquet is a Netherlands Antilles-born American politician and lawyer from Florida. He served two terms in the Florida House of Representatives from 2016 to 2018, representing District 88 as a member of the Democratic Party. He ran for the seat after longtime officeholder Bobby Powell left for the Florida State Senate. Jacquet, who previously served as a commissioner for Delray Beach and as a practicing attorney at law, ran for the seat unopposed in the general election, defeating Edwin Ferguson and Angie Gray in the Democratic primary.[1] Jacquet was defeated in the 2020 Democratic primary by Lake Worth Beach commissioner Omari Hardy.[2]

Jacquet lives in Riviera Beach, Florida, and graduated from DePauw University and the St. Thomas University School of Law.[3]
