By Buddy Nevins, BrowardBeat.com, for SouthFloridaReporter.com, Jan. 4, 2016 – An expected multi-million state Senate race will move roughly 10 miles east after a Tallahassee judge approved new district lines over the Holidays.
Veteran west Broward politician Jim Waldman, a former state House member from Coconut Creek, immediately switched where he will run for state Senate. He has already begun campaigning for an open Senate seat miles to the east of his current home, attending at least one Democratic club meeting in the redrawn district.
“My wife is very happy,” Waldman said. “She always wanted to live on the beach.”
Waldman and Angela Waldman have been looking at homes near the beach for weeks. He is the former mayor of Coconut Creek and has lived in that community for decades.
Waldman said he expects personal injury attorney Gary Farmer, who was the second Democrat running for an open Senate seat in Northwest Broward, to follow him into the new beachfront district shortly.
Waldman and Farmer will fight over the new Fort Lauderdale-based District 40, which runs from Deerfield Beach to Hallandale Beach mostly east of Interstate 95.
