South Florida voters will head to the polls on Tuesday, March 19th, for the first time since the 2022 midterm elections. The elections will feature candidates in roughly 30 municipalities, and the top of the ticket. In most of these races, The County will make endorsements to inform readers of the best candidates on their ballot. These endorsements, however, will be the opinions of The County's Editorial Board, composed of Elijah Manley and Luc Saint-Genies. We encourage readers to conduct their own research ahead of voting. Candidates were provided with a questionnaire with thorough questions about issues that matter to their residents. Their responses will be published for readers to view.
