Deal tied to public corruption case vs commissioner
But some signs that are already approved may stay
Of course she knows the pledge of allegiance.
Miami Commissioner Sabina Covo, who won a special election Feb. 27, was sworn in on the Saturday after that and had no office for a week — working out of a park while she prepared for her first commission meeting — has gotten a lot of heat for not quickly spouting off the pledge of allegiance on demand Thursday.
As predicted here on Political Cortadito, the Miami Fraternal Order of Police has endorsed former and disgraced judge Martin Zilber in the race to replace Ken Russell in Miami’s District 2. Some police union sources say the vote was cooked, under pressure from commissioners.
Pressure cooked.
Miami City Commissioner Christine King wants an office in District 5, close to the people who elected her. Real close.
King has proposed renting 1,500 square feet of space for $2,500 a month at the Martin Luther King Economic Development Corporation — where she had been president and chief executive officer for 10 years before she was elected last November.
What the hell happened?
People are still asking themselves that after last week’s special meeting in Miami to give final approval to the redistricting.
