MIAMI (CBSMiami) - Polls are open in Miami and Miami Beach for voters to decide a pair of run-off elections.

In Miami Beach, residents are voting to fill a commission seat. The decision is between Miami Dade College professor Kristen Rosen Gonzalez and music industry professional Elizabeth "Betsy" Perez.

Voters in Miami will cast ballots for a new District 2 commissioner. Ken Russell will win the seat because his opponent, Teresa Sarnoff, withdrew last week. The city said votes for Sarnoff won't count, but the election must be held.

The polls will close at 7 p.m.
