Elections
2017
The city of Miami, Florida, held a general election for mayor and the District 3 and District 4 seats on the board of commissioners on November 7, 2017. The District 3 race advanced to a runoff election on November 21, 2017, because none of the general election candidates secured a majority. The District 5 seat was also up for election in 2017, but incumbent Keon Hardemon won re-election automatically when no other candidates filed to run against him.[1] The filing deadline for candidates who wished to run in this election was September 23, 2017.
Four candidates, including District 4 Commissioner Francis Suarez, ran to succeed term-limited Mayor Tomás P. Regalado. Three filed to replace Suarez in District 4, and seven competed for term-limited Commissioner Frank Carollo's District 3 seat.[2] Francis Suarez defeated Cynthia Mason Jaquith, Williams Armbrister Sr., and Christian Canache in the general election for mayor of Miami.[2]
