One of the most closely monitored races in Florida this election is the race for the U.S. Senate, in which former U.S. Rep Debbie Murcasel-Powell is challenging first-term Republican Senator Rick Scott.

Florida Democrats have been boldly proclaiming that Florida is in play for this year's November elections, but their campaign spending hasn't matched those claims.

Republican Rick Scott’s bid for renomination for a second Senate term tops the list of races that Florida voters will decide in the upcoming primary.

Former Florida governor and first-term Republican senator Rick Scott is seeking re-election, and facing a trio of primary challengers. On the Democratic side, there are four candidates in that party’s primary.

U.S. Sen. Rick Scott is spending millions of campaign dollars on ads focused on Florida’s Hispanic voters.

Democrats hoping to hold their slim Senate majority after November are looking for wins in two unlikely places that could neutralize potential setbacks elsewhere, Florida and Texas.

U.S. Rep. Kendra Horn, an Oklahoma City lawyer, faced Republican state Sen. Bice for the Oklahoma City-area House seat. President Donald Trump supported Mace on Twitter and she once worked on the president’s campaign. Fischbach contended that Peterson was too close to Democratic House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and other liberals. Republican Ronny Jackson has won a House seat in West Texas, where he moved after leaving the White House in 2018. They are banking on anxiety over the pandemic, suburban indignation with President Donald Trump and a fundraising advantage.

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. – Concern that there may not be a decision on election night is putting a new focus on congressional elections in Florida and elsewhere. If no presidential candidate receives 270 electoral votes, the ultimate decision would be up to the U.S. House of Representatives. Florida has 14 Republican and 13 Democratic members of the U.S. House. But the most vulnerable is House District 26, which is held by U.S. Rep. Debbie Mucarsel-Powell, a Democrat. The Florida House went so far as to name GOP electors just in case Florida’s election outcome and the outcome of the race were still tied up in court.

Speaking during a virtual news conference, State Rep. Debbie Mucarsel-Powell said the state needs to ramp up its response. Democrats also speculated without proof that the governor is attempting to achieve herd immunity, though he has never made any such statement. Dr. Aileen Marty, an epidemiologist at Florida International University in Miami, joined Democrats on the call. She said attempts at herd immunity in Sweden and Spain failed. Democrats argued if the state doesnt make changes, its possible stay-home orders will once again be needed.

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. - Almost a month into Floridas hurricane season, state and local emergency officials have few details about the federal governments plans for evacuating migrant children from a controversial Homestead detention facility if a hurricane comes toward Miami-Dade County. Emergency management officials in Miami-Dade County, where the detention center is located, have had several discussions with officials at the facility about evacuation plans. When asked whether the state had been looped into that plan, Florida Division of Emergency Management spokesman Jason Mahon said the federal government is not required to submit a Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan for state review.Bryan Koon, who served as head of state Division of Emergency Management under former Gov. And they better not mess with my plan if their plan falls apart because I have too much to deal with, Koon said. Mucarsel-Powell has called for the Trump administration to shut down the Homestead shelter, saying children were being kept in prison-like conditions.
