In a significant move within the Florida Democratic Party, the Central Committee has voted to permanently remove Robert Dempster as the chair of the Miami-Dade party, according to two people familiar with the matter. This decision comes after state party chair Nikki Fried had suspended Dempster earlier in the month. The action is part of a broader shake-up within the party, which also saw the Palm Beach County party chair being reinstated after initially being suspended alongside Dempster.
