Huge rebuke of Trump. Huge sign for the midterms. 20 points is wild.

I can’t believe we won in Miami! Do you realize how YUGE that is?

> Democrat Eileen Higgins has flipped the Miami mayor’s office, defeating Republican Emilio Gonzalez and marking the latest sign of the party’s momentum heading into next year’s midterms, according to Decision Desk HQ.
For a minute I thought that might have been Elián González, which probably isn’t a name anyone under 30 remembers. That guy is also a politician at this point funnily enough, but in Cuba.

It also repudiates the false narrative that Latinos won’t vote for a woman.

Even if Democrats regain any office, the damage from Trump will be immense.

Good sign. Don’t get complacent. Let’s keep this up.

Next step is doing things that pull money from billionaires and help average citizens grow their wealth and security. Those actions will bring landslide victories for Democrats at the local, state, and federal level.

People forget that Florida was purple just a couple decades ago. It wasn’t always the deep red crazy state.

local elections matter more than people think. this could signal real change for housing, transit, and public safety in miami.

IIRC the last mayor tried to permanently shut down a classic historical theater because they showed that award winning documentary on Palestine. He tried to call the owners terrorists and all sorts of nuts shit.
Good riddance

Good for Miami. I’m curious to see the exit poll stats if there are any.
I have a couple right leaning Hispanic neighbors in my community who supported Trump last year. Needless to say, none of them are supporting him anymore.
Gee I wonder why. Maybe trying to violently disappear and ethnically cleanse every black and brown person under the sun by cosplaying 1930s Germany wasn’t the smartest policy to follow through on, especially when they’re targeting non-criminals and everyday hardworking families with kids. It’s pissing everyone off. People don’t like this. It’s terrifying, weird, off-putting, inhumane, and constitutionally illegal.
So of course, it’s going to be a “Pikachu shocked face” when the GOP are getting absolutely destroyed in nearly every election going forward leading up to the midterms and beyond.

All it took was ICE rounding up a few of the “I will boat for Donal Tron” Cubans for Miami to flip
They change their tune pretty quick when they realize they’re all brown in the eyes of the Trump administration and Stephen Goebbels Miller and not in fact “one of the good ones”

Does anyone know how to infiltrate the democratic party and fill it with politicians that will actually do something?
Need some socialists ASAP.

We are going to need to win these margins to push some real change in our legislative. Good job, nice to see some good news for once.

So as a NYC resident, what I know about the Miami mayor who just lost was his bizarre dick swinging contest with Eric Adams back in early 2022 over who would be the “First Crypto Mayor” who would take paychecks in crypto. He then went on to create a meme coin for Miami (MiamiCoin) that became immediately valueless, stealing money from Miami residents who “invested.” I am sooooo certain that Eric Adams tried to pull that shit in NYC and was stopped.

Anyway, good riddance, Crypto Mayor.
