Omari Lost; that's all that matters

Even though he was crushed in the Distrist 20 Primary, he is still in the news

From the California New Times:

"One of the candidates is Omari Hardy, a member of Parliament who was three years old when Hastings was elected in 1992. Hastings was the longest-serving member of the Florida State Capitol delegation. However, the district is very democratic.

The Democratic primary winner is considered a lock in the January general election, but the results were too close to call on election night after most votes were counted in the South Florida area.

Nearly 99% of the votes were counted, less than 100. The vote separated two leaders in the field of 11 Democrats. Broward County Commissioner Dale Holness and Healthcare CEO Sheila Chelfils McCormick led the crowded primary, each accounting for nearly 24% of the vote.

The area is the majority of blacks and covers parts of Broward County and Palm Beach County. Tallahassee, Florida contributed to this report."

Florida Secretary of State Laurel Lee instructed the supervisor of elections in Broward and Palm Beach counties to recount the votes in the Democratic special primary to fill the seat left vacant since the death of U.S. Rep. Alcee Hastings, D-Fla.
