The issue of gay marriage has reared its head in one of the most contested judicial races this summer between Renier Diaz de la Portilla, who served in the state Legislature and on the Miami-Dade School District Board, and Veronica Diaz, an assistant city attorney for Miami.
The partner of an adviser to Diaz’s campaign filed a complaint with the Florida Bar that Diaz de la Portilla stated in public he was against same-sex marriage outside the West Dade Regional Library, which was conducting early voting on Aug. 13.
