Democrats’ victories in two Florida state special elections are setting off warning bells for House Republicans from the Sunshine State, who say the results signal that the GOP needs to “pivot” its messaging.
Florida Democrats flipped two GOP seats on Tuesday night. Democrat Emily Gregory defeated Republican Jon Maples for a state house seat that includes President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home. Democrat Brian Nathan also defeated GOP state Rep. Josie Tomkow for an open state Senate seat, which Trump carried by 7 points in 2024.
