republicans take two florida house seats
“ormond beach, fla. (ap) — republicans Jimmy Patronis and Randy Fine won special elections tuesday in two florida congressional districts, bolstered by President Donald Trump’s endorsement to fill vacant seats in reliably republican strongholds.
“Patronis, the state’s chief financial officer, fended off a challenge from democrat Gay Valimont even though she far outraised and outspent him. he will fill the northwest florida 1st district seat vacated by former rep. Matt Gaetz, who was chosen to be Trump’s attorney general but withdrew from consideration amid allegations of sexual misconduct, which he has denied.
“in north florida’s 6th district, Fine won against democratic challenger Josh Weil for a seat vacated by Mike Waltz when he was tapped to become Trump’s national security adviser.
“the win bolsters republicans’ margin to 220-213 in the house of representatives.

N.S.: How, if incoming republicans merely replaced departing republicans, could that have “bolstered” gopers’ margin?

All the commie outlets figured Dems had a chance(because "everyone hates Trump so much" by now). Any time GOPers win an election,it's a shock to them. I hear what you're saying though,N.S.
