FDP Chair Terrie Rizzo released the following the statement after Governor DeSantis suspended Palm Beach County Supervisor of Elections Susan Bucher from office Friday:

“In the United States, our elections are sacred and our elections supervisors are democratically elected — the Governor’s recent power grab, removing Democrats from elected positions, including Susan Bucher, should be seen for what it is, a gross overreach and a politically motivated move to consolidate power and obstruct the will of the people.”
