TAMPA, Fla. — Tampa’s openly gay former police chief has been elected mayor in a landslide victory.
Voters elected 59-year-old Jane Castor in a runoff against 76-year-old retired banker and philanthropist David Stratz.
Castor said her victory with more than 73% of the 53,144 votes cast on Tuesday sends “a resounding message that Tampa is a positive community.”
