In Sarasota County, candidates backed by DeSantis won three races, an outcome sure to have a major effect on a school board that bucked the governor and other GOP leaders by requiring students to wear masks last fall amid the Covid-19 pandemic. Voters there elected two new school board members and reelected Bridget Ziegler, who is married to the vice chair of Florida’s Republican Party.
DeSantis-backed candidates also scored big wins in Miami-Dade County, another school board that went against Republicans on masking students. “Thank you to every single volunteer and to all the voters of District 8 for trusting and supporting me during this process,” Colucci wrote on social media. “I will work tirelessly on our School Board for all students, parents, and teachers in #MDCPS.”Democrats, who endorsed at least 30 candidates between the main party and elsewhere, also had some success Tuesday.
