Court strikes down Miami election date change as unconstitutional.

The claim that a court has struck down Miami's election date change as unconstitutional involves several components: first, that Miami city officials moved the election date from 2025 to 2026; second, that this move was challenged legally; and third, that a court ruled the change unconstitutional. The evidence confirms that Miami commissioners voted to postpone the 2025 elections to 2026 to align with even-year federal and state elections, a move that has drawn significant criticism and legal challenges.theguardian.comtheguardian.comMiami city officials cancelled an election.
