Republican candidates are projected to win both special elections for U.S. House seats in Florida, though by smaller margins than expected in two GOP-dominated districts. State Sen. Randy Fine is projected by The Associated Press to win in Florida’s 6th Congressional District while the AP projects Jimmy Patronis will win in the 1st District.

Republican Jimmy Patronis beat Democrat Gay Valimont. The party also held another Florida seat in Tuesday's special election.

Democrats won a Wisconsin Supreme Court race and lost two Florida special elections Tuesday, but the trends are clearly pointing in their direction.

A liberal judge won big in Wisconsin's April 1 Supreme Court election while the GOP held two Florida House seats. Both parties are spinning the results ahead of the 2026 midterm cycle.

Republican Randy Fine defeated his Democratic challenger to fill the House seat previously held by Trump national security advisor Michael Waltz.
