As a member of the Miami-Dade Democratic Executive Committee, Miami Gardens resident SarDeborah Wright knew months before Election Day that she would be voting for Kamala Harris for president. But Wright, 67, had also grown frustrated with the way the national party ran its operations in Florida this election cycle, saying she believes it wasted time trying to persuade Hispanic Republicans to vote for Democrats rather than focusing on mobilizing Black supporters like her.
Wright said she is one of many Black voters in South Florida who believe the Democratic National Committee could have done more to support local efforts to help Harris become the next U.S. president, especially in regards to initiatives in the Black community. Instead, Donald Trump clinched a commanding victory against Harris in Florida and defeated the vice president in all seven swing states, picking up increased support from Hispanics and, to a lesser degree, Black voters.
