Mask-burning COVID activist enters Fort Lauderdale Mayor’s race

by The 100 Companies

He made headlines leading mask-burning protests during the pandemic. Now he wants to supplant a City Hall official he regularly criticizes.

Chris Nelson, a DJ and activist who dedicated much of his online activity to promoting Gov. Ron DeSantis’ policies, filed to run for Fort Lauderdale Mayor.

He’s one of five people challenging Mayor Dean Trantalis. However, he’s the only one who was arrested for drunkenly trying to fight guests at a bridal party he DJ’d.

Nelson wants to stop overdevelopment, address flooding and rid downtown of homeless people.

“This will be a fun journey,” he said of his candidacy.
