Key West police said Diaz's speech sounded slurred and his breath smelled of alcohol.
"There goes my political career," Diaz said in a police body camera video.
Diaz is serving his fourth term as District 12 commissioner.
According to a statement released Monday morning, Diaz will go through the legal process "just like anyone else facing similar charges."
