Disgraced former Sheriff Scott Israel’s primary to regain control of the Broward Sheriff’s Office has ended in defeat. His campaign opponent, Sheriff Gregory Tony, came up victorious in Tuesday’s primary, winning 37.3% of the vote to Israel’s 35.1%, roughly 4,700 more votes in a contest marked by bitter and frequently personal attacks.
Israel conceded after the results of the election became clear, telling local news reporters that he accepts “the decision of the voters.â€
“I want the community to know that I poured my heart and soul into being the sheriff of Broward County, and I fought hard to protect everyone’s rights,†the former sheriff said.
Good riddance to bad rubbish. Israel was a liar and a coward. He had no business even being near the levers of power, let alone putting his hands on them
