Alex Fernandez's (D) election win in Miami Beach this week broke a city record

Alex Fernandez won big this week, taking 84% of the vote to secure re-election to the Miami Beach Commission Group 3 seat — the largest share of votes ever captured by a City Commission candidate.

That’s according to Assistant City Clerk Regis Barbou, who confirmed with Florida Politics that Fernandez’s margin of victory broke Miami Beach records.

Fernandez, in a statement marking his win, noted that it’s also been four decades since any candidate on a Miami Beach ballot took more than 12,000 votes. He took 12,042.

“This makes our victory even more special and I’ll continue working hard every day with gratitude, humility, and goodness of heart to make you proud!” he said.
