Episode 150: Manchurian Candidates

The Rotunda with Trimmel Gomes

On Trimmel Gomes’ latest episode of “The Rotunda,” Palm Beach County State Attorney Dave Aronberg talks about his decision to file ethics complaints against eight “sham” write-in candidates. After a failed effort to get a constitutional amendment on the 2018 ballot through Florida’s Constitution Revision Commission, Aronberg and Sherry Plymale, a Republican commission member, filed complaints with the Florida Commission on Ethics and the Department of State to issue fines against the candidates scattered across the state, as they believe they are bogus. Also, Aronberg provides Gomes with an update on the opioid crisis in Palm Beach County. The Rotunda podcast is available each Monday via iTunes, Stitcher or Soundcloud.
