While talks between North Carolina and the GOP continue, Florida mayors had their say:

St. Petersburg Mayor Rick Kriseman:

“Putting on an event of this size and scale takes months and months of preparation, so I don’t see how realistically that could even happen, so I think it’s a non-issue.”

A spokesman for Tampa Mayor Jane Castor:

“Consideration of this would be irresponsible at this time.”

Miami Beach Mayor Dan Gelber:

“I don’t know how you commit today to doing something in two months where you don’t know what the situation is going to be,” said Gelber.

In case you weren’t sure, all 3 mayors above are Democrats. The GOP Mayor in Jacksonville?

Jacksonville Mayor Lenny Curry, a former state GOP chairman, said he “would be honored” to host the event at the VyStar Veterans Memorial Arena, which recently hosted the Ultimate Fighting Championship. – Charlotte Observer
