Republican Miami-Dade County Mayor Carlos Gimenez has beat a single-term Democrat in Florida’s 26th Congressional District, according to The Associated Press, flipping a seat that has frequently shifted between the two parties.
Gimenez, a retired firefighter and mayor since 2011, defeated Rep. Debbie Mucarsel-Powell (D-Fla.) in a district that stretches from the Miami suburbs to Key West.
