Born to Run: Election Qualifying Dates. By Geniusofdespair

If you want to be a County Court Judge you don't have much time to qualify for the election (judges without challengers will be sighing with relief in a few days):

Qualifying is Noon, Monday, April 16, 2012 through Noon, Friday, April 20, 2012

County Commissioner, Mayor, Property Appraiser:

Qualifying is 8 a.m., Tuesday, May 22, 2012 through Noon, Tuesday, June 5, 2012

School Board:

Qualifying is Noon, Monday, June 4, 2012 through Noon, Friday, June 8, 2012.

Katherine Fernandez Rundle
In other election news, Clerk of Courts, Harvey Ruvin's challenger has withdrawn so there is no challenger there. Edma Diaz has signed up to run for Mayor - there are now 12 candidates. Keon Hardemon has signed up to run against County Commissioner Audrey Edmonson and Loretta Riley of Florida City is running against County Commissioner Dennis Moss. Only Xavier Suarez has no challenger...yet. Pedro Garcia has drawn 2 challengers for Property Appraiser. One is dangerous: Carlos Lopez-Cantera. Lopez-Cantera will probably win because of name recognition. I don't think he did anything notable while in the State Legislature. Miami Dade State Attorney Katherine Fernandez Rundle has a challenger: Roderick Vereen. How long has she been in office? About 30 years?

When is the qualifying for the State seats? Have those all been settled or is there still a musical chairs going on?
