WASHINGTON (AP) — Tuesday's primary elections feature two top Florida Democrats squaring off for the chance to face Republican Gov.
Fried, the only statewide-elected Democrat, has sought to portray Crist as a Democrat in name only. Jones is facing Peggy Schiller, a local Democratic Party activist. Crist has dismissed Fried’s criticisms as last-ditch efforts to counter his robust fundraising and high-profile endorsements. Charlie Crist, who was once governor himself as a Republican, are vying for the Democratic nomination to compete against DeSantis in November. Gaetz has not been charged and denies wrongdoing. WASHINGTON (AP) — Tuesday’s primary elections feature two top Florida Democrats squaring off for the chance to face Republican Gov.

November’s general election will also decide control of the House and Senate, and history is against the Democrats. If that pattern continues, and Democrats lose their narrow majority in the House or Senate, Biden’s ability to enact significant legislation will be blocked. This year’s election could decide the direction of the G.O.P. If candidates who endorse Trump’s false claim that the 2020 election was stolen win control of state offices, Trump and his supporters could be poised to challenge the outcome of the 2024 Presidential election. The White House has touted Biden’s response to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, but some progressive Democrats have expressed frustration with his failure to enact many of his most sweeping proposals, from addressing climate change to a historic increase in social-welfare spending. Although Biden won’t be on the ballot in November, Americans’ judgment of his first two years in office—when he faced a pandemic, the highest inflation in decades, and deep divisions within his own party—will be reflected in the results.

She is leaning heavily on the fact that she’s a former police chief in Orlando and her by-the-bootstraps upbringing as the daughter of a maid and janitor. Crist was actually already governor of Florida as a Republican in 2007; he switched parties and is now a member of Congress. Democrats haven’t held a Senate seat in Florida in four years; they haven’t held the governor’s mansion there in 24 years. The epitome of Democrats’ redistricting problem is in Manhattan, where two Democratic committee chairs in Congress and huge names in New York politics had to face off for one newly redrawn district — Reps. But a court stepped in and redrew the maps to be more fair, and Democrats may gain just one congressional seat, or none at all.
