Is this sentence correct:
"Jef Bush HAS EXERCISED some public service posts in Florida."
Or even just as;
"Jef Bush HAS EXERCISED some public posts in Florida."

Do you mean Jeb Bush? The idea of "exercising" a post does not seem right to me. You can say "held" if that's what you mean.

If "some" feels weak, you can say e.g. "several" or "various" or "a number of".
