State Rep. Alex Rizo held his campaign kickoff Thursday, Nov. 12, launching his bid for Florida Senate District 39. The event marked the next phase of his campaign as he moves from the House toward the Senate.
The source material for the event is thin. The coverage includes a short video of the kickoff and social media details, but it does not describe speeches, policy positions, opponents or a specific location.
For Hialeah and Miami-Dade voters, the race matters because the seat would give Rizo a larger role in state lawmaking. Florida Senate District 39 covers part of the Miami-Dade area where Rizo has served in the House, and the contest will shape the local political landscape heading into the next election cycle.
