(FrontPage) When visiting Khurrum Wahid’s Facebook page, you see photos of what appears to be a clean-cut politician attending different events, posing with important politicos, standing with young people, and smiling broadly for the camera. Wahid is running for the position of city commissioner of Coral Springs, Florida, and his Facebook page has been manufactured to show the perfect candidate for the public’s view. What is hidden behind this façade, though, is Wahid’s history — and present — of his involvement in radical Islam. It is this other side of Wahid that the voters need to recognize, so that they do not make a huge mistake come Election Day.
On June 18th, a “special election” will be held for Coral Springs City Commission, Seat 2. The former commissioner, Dan Daley, has left the seat vacant — following his win in a state House special election — and is heading to the Florida state legislature, in Tallahassee. One of the individuals vying for his Commission seat is Khurrum Wahid.
