Angie Nixon Wins Florida Democratic Senate Primary

Angie Nixon defeated Alex Vindman in Florida’s Democratic Senate primary, according to coverage on both the center and right. The center article also says Nixon will face Ashley Moody, but that matchup is not stated in the right-leaning coverage. Center outlets place Nixon’s win in a broad roundup of Florida results, redistricting and other races. Right-leaning outlets include the result in live election coverage that describes Democratic candidates negatively and Republican allies approvingly.
