Gov. Ron DeSantis recently stated that he's keeping all options on the table, including possible suspensions, after Miami Commissioners voted 3-2 in June to cancel the city's 2025 mayoral election and move it to November 2026. Commissioners Christine King, Ralph Rosado, and Damian Pardo voted in favor, while Joe Carollo and Miguel Gabela voted against.
"The reality is local governments have to abide by Florida law," DeSantis said in a clip from CBS Miami. "Could it come to the point where commissioners can get suspended? The law does provide me that as one of many resources."
The governor's remarks come after he seemingly dismissed the idea of Miami unlawfully rewriting its election process just two months ago.
“I’m highly skeptical of that plan,” DeSantis said at the time, questioning the motives behind the proposed change.
