A group of Miami Beach residents are suing the city after a ballot item was rescinded.
The item proposed a 1% food and beverage tax.
The money collected would have supported the homeless and domestic violence centers.
It was rescinded following a vote by the city commission because they didn’t trust where the money was going.
Now, residents are accusing the commission and the Miami-Dade Supervisor of Elections of voter suppression because 20,000 votes had already been cast during early voting.
They hope to reverse the decision.
