The covenant the old board put in place requires that any legal dispute under the covenant be decided in Orange county with no jury trial allowed.
The citizens of Orange county elect the judges. Disney is the largest employer and tourism is the largest industry.
There isn't a federal issue here that I can see.

yes, the board is elected - we already covered this. you even provided a link explaining how the election works
just as Mussolini was elected, Disney has elections in the Reedy Ceek district. Every landowner gets to vote
once we can get rid of that bullshit, citizens will finally have a say.
That was the OLD board until DeSantis took away the ability to vote.
Geeze. you are a moron.
Now NO ONE gets to vote for the board. Not a single person or citizen gets to vote for the board.
The board is no longer elected. It is appointed by a Governor that has no connection to the local area.

I'm not a lawyer nor a business guy. Agreed this isn't a federal issue. The link mentioned taking it to SCOTUS if need be. I'm taking the link's word that it was a valid option.
What I'm curious about is how much DeSantis fights this. If he makes a big stink about it, then he was, indeed, blindsided. If he doesn't, then that indicates to me he knew it was coming and doesn't care. He'd made his point and still keeps the Disney Golden Goose for tax revenue. Win-Win!

The Central Florida Tourism Oversight District has not started yet - no board exists
Once that takes shape, the citizens get to directly vote for the Governor, and the senators, who pick the board/approve the pick
Right now the board is hand picked by Disney Corporation - and citizens of the state have no role in who makes up Disney Corporation -
you are a moron thinking the Reedy Creek model is a more democratic form of governance than Central Florida Tourism Oversight District will be.
