The2000 Fort Lauderdale mayoral election took place on March 14, 2000. Incumbent MayorJim Naugle ran for re-election to a fourth term. He was only challenged by Anthony G. Evans, Jr., a minister and pharmacy manager.
Naugle was endorsed for re-election by theMiami Herald and theSun Sentinel. TheSentinel noted that "Naugle's brand of populism has played well with the voters of Fort Lauderdale,"[1] and theHerald observed that he "has taken a conservative approach to redevelopment, serving as a questioning voice even when he cannot build a consensus,"[2]
Naugle ultimately defeated Evans in a landslide, winning re-election with 80 percent of the vote.[3]
