Miami PD Condemns Officer With Trump Mask At Voting Site

Residents of South Florida are calling for a Miami police officer to be suspended or fired after he was spotted and photographed wearing a political mask in uniform while inside a polling location.

His picture was taken by Steve Simeonidis, chairman of the Miami-Dade Democratic party, inside the polling location in the government center this morning.

Simeonidis’ tweet reads, “Here is @CityofMiami Police Officer Daniel Ubeda, in full uniform with badge and gun wearing his Trump mask inside of the polling location in government center. This is city-funded voter intimidation. Ubeda should be suspended immediately.”
