That’s it for Joe Garcia at head of Miami-Dade Democratic Party

Due to his campaign for Congress, Joe Garcia stepped down Monday as chairman of the Miami-Dade Democrats. A new election was scheduled for Wednesday Feb. 27.

Candidates may wait until a special meeting of the Democratic Executive Committee on that date to announce themselves, but this blog will gladly post the names of any who wish to run.

Joe Garcia was chairman for an eventful year in which our profile in South Florida was heightened. He’s one of three strong candidates stepping forward for the U.S. House of representatives – along with former Hialeah Mayor Raul Martinez and businesswoman Annette Taddeo – and this corner hopes that the next chair will be ready for progress and success.

Thanks, Joe!
