Democrats are projected to deliver a blow to Florida Republicans and flip a state House seat in President Trump’s backyard, according to Decision Desk HQ.
Democrat Emily Gregory, a health fitness small business owner, defeated Trump-backed Republican Jon Maples, a financial advisor, in a race for the open Florida District 87 state House seat, which includes part of Palm Beach County and the president’s Mar-a-Lago resort.
As of 8 p.m. Tuesday, Gregory garnered just over 51 percent of the vote, while Maples had just under 49 percent backing with over 95 percent of the vote in.
Gregory and Maples faced off in the contest after Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) tapped Republican Mike Caruso in August to become the county cleark and comptroller. Trump voted by mail in Tuesday’s election.
