KVIA

MIAMI (AP) — Miami-Dade County Mayor Daniella Levine Cava has cruised to a reelection victory, avoiding a potential runoff by winning nearly 60% of the vote. The Democrat became the first female mayor of Florida’s most populous county in 2020. She defeated six opponents Tuesday, including the mayors of Miami Lakes and Surfside. A runoff between the top two candidates would have been required if Levin Cava had received less than 50% of the vote. The county also chose two candidates to battle in November for the sheriff post.
