Tuesday is Election Day for Republicans in east-central Palm Beach County.
GOP voters will choose their nominee in an upcoming special election in House District 90, which includes Delray Beach, Boynton Beach and several smaller surrounding communities.
The Sun Sentinel Editorial Board has endorsed Bill Reicherter, 56, a sign company owner who has been locally active in Broward and Palm Beach counties. His opponent is Maria Zack, 62, a former lobbyist and political consultant. Neither is yet registered to vote in House District 90.
Reicherter’s moderate platform includes the creation of an insurance fraud task force, property tax relief, more spending on public education and protecting local government home rule.
The Republican winner will face Democrat Rob Long and Karen Yeh, an independent, in the general election on Dec. 9. That election will be open to all voters living in the district.
Polls are open from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Tuesday. To vote, you must present a photo ID with your signature on it, such as a driver’s license.
The Sun Sentinel Editorial Board consists of Opinion Editor Steve Bousquet, Deputy Opinion Editor Dan Sweeney, editorial writers Pat Beall and Martin Dyckman, and Executive Editor Gretchen Day-Bryant. To contact us, email at letters@sun-sentinel.com.
