“I’m looking forward to a new chapter of my career,” Ceasar told SFGN on Wednesday evening as he attended a reception for U.S. Senator Bill Nelson in Plantation.
A practicing attorney in Broward County for more than 36 years, Ceasar’s return to the Democratic Party’s apparatus was welcomed.
“We have regained a passionate voice for democratic ideals, and I look forward to working with Mitch in the coming months,” said Broward Democratic Party interim chair Cynthia Busch, in a news release.
