PEMBROKE PARK, Fla. – Two veteran politicians are vying for the nomination for the state senate in newly-drawn District 35 which includes most of western Broward County: State Senator Lauren Book, the current Senate Majority Leader, and Dr. Barbara Sharief, a former Broward County Commissioner and Mayor.
This is the marquee race on the Broward primary ballot and everyone can vote regardless of political affiliation since there are no Republicans running.
Both candidates joined This Week in South Florida host Michael Putney for a live debate, and the full video can be seen at the top of this page.
