Democrat Debbie Wasserman Schultz wins reelection to U.S. House in Florida’s 20th District
The AP said she won a 12th term as voters backed her focus on affordability after redistricting reshaped the South Florida seat.
- On Tuesday, Democratic Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz won reelection to represent Florida's 20th Congressional District, defeating Republican Brent Andersen in the race.
- Wasserman Schultz sought the 20th District seat after GOP-led redistricting reshaped her previous 25th District, while the vacancy arose following former Rep. Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick's resignation in April.
- During the campaign, Black Democrats challenged her bid, arguing it undermined Black political representation; she defeated Cherfilus-McCormick in the August primary.
- With 78 percent of the vote compared to 18 percent for Andersen, the former Democratic National Committee chair secured a 12th term in office, The Associated Press declared.
- Andersen, a Republican businessman, campaigned on lowering property insurance costs, though the district remains home to a large Black voting population that has historically influenced regional outcomes.
