ACLU sues Florida Gov. DeSantis for not calling special elections for state House and Senate seats
- The American Civil Liberties Union filed a lawsuit against Florida Governor Ron DeSantis for not calling special elections for two legislative seats that became vacant after recent resignations.
- The lawsuit argues that DeSantis's failure to set special election dates will leave voters without representation during the upcoming legislative session.
- The plaintiffs in the case are Christina Forrest and Janet Laimont, who assert their legal right to have the governor schedule special elections.
- The ACLU claims that DeSantis has historically delayed calling special elections, violating a Florida law that mandates timely elections for vacant legislative positions.
