We weren't kidding about Florida starting the count out fast! We'll start reporting results for each race when at least 10% of the AP's estimated vote total is in.
We're at 21% of AP's estimated total for #FL04 GOP primary, state Sen. Aaron Bean leads ActRed exile Erick Aguilar 69-25. Trump would have won this Jacksonville-area seat 53-46
(Yes, it's called WinRed, but come on.)
74%(!) of estimated vote already reporting in GOP primary for #FL13, and Trump-backed Anna Paulina Luna edging out attorney Kevin Hayslett just 38.6-36.3. Dems fielding former DoD official Eric Lynn in 53-46 Trump seat.
We're getting plenty of votes from GOP primary for #FL07, which is yet another newly-gerrymandered seat. 27% of estimated total in, Army veteran Cory Mills leads state Rep. Anthony Sabatini 49-21. Trump won 52-47 in new seat.
Cory Mills, who holds big lead in #FL07 GOP primary, ran ad touting how his company made tear gas used against what the on-screen text called "Hillary Clinton protesters," "left wing protesters," and "Black Lives Matter protesters."
#FL11 GOP primary could be unexpectedly tight. 29% of estimated vote in, Rep. Dan Webster leads far-right troll Laura Loomer only 49-46. This is a very red seat.
AP has already called GOP primary for #FL04 for state Sen. Aaron Bean. Trump would have won 53-46 here, and Dems haven't raised much money.
Dem primary for safe #FL10 is close, but both former House members far back. Gun safety activist Maxwell Alejandro Frost leads state Sen. Randolph Bracy 31-28 with 51% of estimated vote in, Alan Grayson 17, Corrine Brown 10.
GOP primary for all-new #FL15 not close right now. Almost half of estimated vote in, former SoS Laurel Lee leads state Sen. Kelli Stargel 43-24. Trump would have won 51-48 here.
Laura Loomer has taken the LEAD in #FL11 GOP primary. With 36% of estimated vote in, she's ahead of Rep. Dan Webster 49-47. This would be a huge upset.
AP calls Dem primary for safe #FL20 for Rep. Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick. She only beat Dale Holness by 5 votes in last year's special, but leads him 66-29 with 56% of estimated vote in.
Laura Loomer, who is currently leading #FL11 Rep. Dan Webster, is a self-described "proud Islamophobe" who has been banned from numerous social media, rideshare, and payment services for spreading bigotry. vox.com/policy-and-pol…
State Sen. Annette Taddeo, who is the Dem establishment fav in #FL27, leads 69-26 with 75% of estimated vote in. GOP worked to protect Maria Elvira Salazar by giving her Miami seat Trump would have narrowly taken.
Trump-backed Anna Paulina Luna looking better in #FL13 with more votes in. She leads Kevin Hayslett 42-35 with 72% of estimated vote in.
No upset in sight in Dem primary for #FLGOV. With 59% of estimated vote in, Rep. Charlie Crist leads Nikki Fried 61-34.
Dem primary for blue #FL23 going about as expected. Broward County Commissioner Jared Moskowitz leads 64-20 with 65% of estimated vote in.
Jerry Torres, who pledged to self-fund $15 mil, had to go to court to get back on #FL14 GOP ballot, now losing 54-27 to James Judge with 60% in. Dem Rep. Kathy Castor looks secure no matter what, though.
Rep. Dan Webster has narrowly retaken lead over far-right troll Laura Loomer. 68% of estimated vote in, Webster up 48.5-47.0.
Dan Webster got to state legislature in 1980, was first GOP state House speaker since Reconstruction. What a place to be in now. #FL11
