Scott Newton Reelected as Mayor
By John Hayden

Scott Newton has been reelected as mayor for Wilton Manors. Early returns Tuesday night made it clear he was cruising to another two-year term.
With more than 50% of the vote in, he had 70%, well ahead of challengers Mark Beigay and Mike Sansevero.
Newton held a party at Pub On the Drive Tuesday night.
During the celebration, he told OutSFL, “I thank the community because they know I’m here for all of us. I want to focus on positivity and move forward."
He said he was running for a final term to oversee projects that will impact the city for decades, including sewer upgrades and development including a new hotel.
Newton has been in elected office for 20 years. Sansevero, who has about 20% of the vote, ran primarily as a change agent.
Beigay is a newcomer to the city and was at a severe disadvantage when it came to name recognition. |

WAXING MOON IN CAPRICORN: Growth in Temporary Restriction
The Reversed Four of Cups prefaces four years where we might feel as if the cup of joy and victory has been taken away from us, that most dismissive Holy Grail of Freedom and Justice that we fight so hard for. Yet our work is not over, and though tempted to feel defeated, the Reversed Nine of Wands calls us to still look at the future with optimism and the drive to never give up: one lost battle does not lose the war.
The universe works in cycles, and as there must be winter to bring in the spring in much brighter bloom, so must we hibernate, plan, strategize, unite, and study our previous successes. Thus, as promised by the Ten of Cups, the endless rainbow of our LGBTQIA+ people will continue to shine during and after this temporary storm.
(Key numbers: 1, 4, 5, 9, 10, 14, 23)
