Story summary

On October 18, 2026, CBS News featured an interview with Angie Nixon, the Democratic nominee for Senate in Florida, on their show "Face the Nation" hosted by Margaret Brennan. With only two weeks and two days until Election Day, Nixon discussed her campaign's recent gains, including outfundraising her opponent by over $2 million in the previous quarter. She highlighted key issues like healthcare access and affordable housing, criticizing her Republican opponent for voting to end health care coverage for over 440,000 people in Florida. Additionally, Nixon acknowledged that her upstart campaign had "previously had very little support" from national Democrats but now welcomes all support as she campaigns on a progressive agenda.
