Democrat Emily Gregory narrowly won the special election for the district Tuesday night, The Associated Press projects. Trump carried the area in 2024.
Harris won this district by .7% in the presidential election. This candidate won by a little more, but special elections / off year elections, the party out of power usually gets a little bump.
Looks like this candidate won by 2.3%. So good sign, but you’d think that wars ICE murders would be worth more than 1.6%
Harris didn’t win this state house district she won Palm Beach County.
Look at the map, This Water front owning class isn’t going to be bothered either way. They have personal cell number to get their undocumented hires back or with just pay a little extra until MAGA is ousted.
Everything was redistricted in 2022 to attempt to keep a Republican majority. Not sure what District & election was that close, I’m not seeing it. Even if its purple there was an attmpt to gerrymander and this election broke it.
District 88 is Dem and it does appear they stole from that and attempted to route Palm Beach in to dilute it. It might be even more interesting of a win than I thought.

Not why the article said Trump won by 11% in 2024. Looks like you’re right though.

Good point. District 87 is smaller.
That said, the former GOP incumbent won by less than 40 votes. It’s a very purple district.
