Story summary

Republican Sen. Ashley Moody defeated Democrat Angie Nixon in Florida's special Senate election on November 4, 2026, securing her seat for another two years until the 2028 election. Nixon, who was recently endorsed by former President Barack Obama and is a member of the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA), campaigned on progressive issues like Medicare for All and abolishing ICE but faced significant challenges in fundraising and voter perception. Moody received 50.7% of the vote compared to Nixon's 48.2%, according to The Associated Press, which called the race at 8:34 p.m. This victory is seen as crucial for Republicans aiming to maintain control of Congress during the midterms.
