Lauderdale Holds Special Election To Fill Commission Seat

FT. LAUDERDALE (CBSMiami) – Ft. Lauderdale residents who live in District 2 are urged to go the polls Tuesday to vote in a special election for a new commissioner.

By state law, Charlotte Rodstrom was forced to resign the District 2 commission seat last year when she made an unsuccessful run for a Broward County commission seat last November.

Now Rodstrom is facing off against Dean Trantalis, Chuck Black and Lester Zalewski to regain the seat and finish the two year term.

The polls will be open until 7 p.m.
