Tight Florida congressional race, others deserve attention | Opinion

A week after Election Day, I was thinking about a few Treasure Coast races, including one that would have made Indian River County history. I say “would have,” because, based on results from the Florida Division of Elections Nov. 12, Vero Beach native Dan Green trailed five-term U.S. Rep. Darren Soto of Kissimmee, by 1,506 votes in Florida’s new Congressional District 9. Indian River County has never had a hometown representative in the U.S. House. Green, a military defense expert and officer in the Navy reserves with extensive service in war zones, planned to be the first . The candidates' vote totals were separated by about 0.52%, just above the mandatory recount margin of 0.5%. And, a week after Election Day, Green continued to decline comment on the race. Soto, whose campaign spent about $1.2 million more than Green’s, announced plans to open a regional office in Vero Beach. Treasure Coast 2012 congressional race not as close, but ... As of early Nov. 10, some media outlets called the race for Soto based on state data, others did not until that afternoon. NBC News initially reported that day Green would have to win 95.5% of 1,700 overseas ballots that potentially

Chimp sanctuary delivers an ape's food by drone amid Florida floods

A Florida chimpanzee sanctuary briefly had to deliver food to one of its 200 apes by drone this week because the property was swamped by heavy rain. But Save the Chimps says the animals stayed safe. By Saturday, the water finally was receding significantly. Rainstorms soaked southeast and central Florida from Sunday through Tuesday. Save the Chimps is near Fort Pierce. The organization says the animals' care houses were secure on high ground, but canals overflowed and submerged the internal roads that staffers normally use to deliver food to the apes by golf cart. Save the Chimps bought a delivery drone some time ago for just such an emergency.

Amendment 3: The people spoke, and officials vow to adapt

Indian River County residents wanted property tax reform – and they got it.

That was a higher percentage than the 62 percent of yes votes statewide.
