Miami Mayor Francis Suarez's Political Ambitions and Challenges
TL;DR Summary
Miami Mayor Francis Suarez has announced his candidacy for the 2024 Republican presidential nomination, becoming the first sitting mayor to do so. Despite the historical precedent of presidents coming from higher-profile positions, Suarez believes his experience leading Miami has prepared him to tackle issues facing most Americans. He faces tough competition from former President Donald Trump and Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, who are currently leading in early primary polling. While mayors have become major candidates in recent history, the odds for a sitting mayor to become president remain long.
