Miami just witnessed a political earthquake. Eileen Higgins has officially become Miami’s first-ever female mayor, delivering the city’s first Democratic mayoral victory since 1997 and doing it with a commanding 59% against Trump-backed Emilio Gonzalez. After more than three decades of Republican dominance, Miami’s nonpartisan ballot was upended by a wave of voter frustration, economic anxiety and a growing demand for a clean break from business-as-usual at City Hall. Gonzalez conceded after a high-profile Trump endorsement failed to move the electorate, revealing a major shift in Miami’s political undercurrents. WATCH
