US EditionWhat a Democrat’s Victory in the Miami Mayoral Election May Mean for Trump
Eileen Higgins, the first female mayor and Democrat in nearly 30 years, won by about 19 points and plans to challenge local police immigration enforcement and a controversial land giveaway.
- On Wednesday, Eileen Higgins won the Miami mayoral race, becoming the city’s first Democrat in nearly 30 years and its first female mayor by defeating Emilio Gonzalez by about 19 points.
- Affordability woes and rising `fear` among voters drove turnout, as Miami residents told Higgins they face expensive rent, costly property insurance and higher store prices tied to tariffs.
- The contested Biscayne Boulevard land donation is central to the library dispute, as Miami-Dade College board voted to donate nearly 3 acres valued over $67 million, but a judge temporarily blocked the transfer while a lawsuit proceeds and Higgins called it a `land giveaway`.
- Higgins said she will explore legal options to unwind a federal agreement that empowers city police to conduct immigration enforcement, following a clinic’s layoffs after protections for more than 300,000 Venezuelan migrants were stripped.
- Higgins' win comes as the city prepares to host next year’s Group of 20 summit, which Francis Suarez called `the best location` and said puts Miami `on the global map`.
