We keep running into Miami Commissioner Francis Suarez, who has cast his hat in the ring for mayor now against the incumbent, Tomas Regalado in that city’s November election.
Saw him earlier this month at a Coral Gables debate, there to support his friend, newly-elected Gables Commissioner Vince Lago. Then saw him Tuesday night at the Lago victory party at the Globe.
So, I had to do a double take when I saw him a few minutes later on the side of the road as I drove home along Calle Ocho, or Soutwest 8th Street, or Tamiami Trail, whichever you choose to call it.
No, he was not soliciting… well, er, maybe he was. Soliciting votes, that is.
Baby X, who went with his father, Miami-Dade Commissioner Xavier “Mayor Sir” Suarez, to the Gables party, was really just a digital version of himself — on an ad screen in front of Plaza Palmetto, a little shopping strip off of 67th Avenue.
Intertwined between some DUI attorney, a beauty school and a computer diagnostic guru, there is an ad for Suarez’ mayoral campaign with his silouette right there on the street.
Great to keep running into you, Commissioner. Is this a sign that Ladra should focus on your race?
Francis Suarez here, Francis there. Baby X is everywhere added by Ladra on
