Democrats flipped Miami Mayor’s office on Tuesday.

Higgins defeated Republican Emilio Gonzalez, a former Miami City Manager who served on Trump’s DHS transition team.

Higgins will be Miami’s first Democrat mayor since 1997.

Fox News reported:

It took nearly 30 years, but Democrats finally broke their decades-long ballot box losing streak in Miami, Florida, the city known as the nation’s “Gateway to Latin America.”

Democrat Eileen Higgins, a former county commissioner, defeated Republican Emilio Gonzalez, a former city manager, in Tuesday’s Miami’s mayoral runoff election, according to the Associated Press.

While the election was technically nonpartisan, the ballot box face-off became the latest showdown this year between Democrats and Republicans, with both parties pouring in resources and the race grabbing plenty of national attention.

President Donald Trump endorsed Gonzalez and this past weekend took to social media to emphasize that Miami’s mayoral election “is a big and important race!!! Vote for Republican Gonzalez.”
