Right now we have other issues to take care of.” Remember: DeFede is a progressive radio talk show host, while [...]

I’ll be bringing an item-by-item election coverage piece over the next couple of days, so stay tuned. Those of you not in Florida can safely ignore this. Those [...]

Just 20 minutes before the debate began, a federal judge [...]

Several South Florida voters say the choices they touched on the electronic screens were not the ones that appeared on the review screen — the final voting step.
