Tom Keen flips HD 35 from red to blue in critical Special Election
Democrats invested heavily in the race, hoping to prove Florida remains a battleground.
LETS GO FLORIDA.....Let's collectively decide to be become less of a goddamn joke and get rid of the proto fascist voice that is doing Ronda SandTits high heel bidding blindly!
Why couldn't they write out "House District"? Is there a cost on letters?

Still awesome news, but it is for the State House
“I fought for our country for 21 years as a Naval Flight Officer,” Keen said during the campaign. “I will fight for my fellow neighbors in District 35 when I get to Tallahassee. I filed to run in this race in May 2023 because the residents of District 35 deserve better representation in Tallahassee.”
To show the significance here, I can't remember any other time in the last decade when Democrats posted a serious surprise victory in a legislative race in Central Florida.
And in this one, Republicans massively outspent Dems - and went all-in on texting tricks to boot.
A drop in the bucket but a good one. I wonder if the state GOP will consider this an aberration or a warning or if they'll even care since they still have a huge majority. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Florida_House_of_Representatives
Looks like HD 35 is really Keen on Tom.

Another one of those progressives that can't win in red states.
