Democrat Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick trounced Republican Jason Mariner Tuesday night in the special election contest for Florida’s 20th district.
The Details: Cherfilus-McCormick achieved 79 percent of the vote while Mariner took home only 20 percent.
Cherfilus-McCormick had previously won her democratic primary by only 5 percentage points however, meaning it is likely she will soon face a very competitive primary contest for her next term.
Cherfilus-McCormick is a wealthy businesswoman who managed to spend more than 6 million achieving her victory in the race.

"No one thought that a little girl like me who was growing up in this district, who was raising a daughter by myself at the time, would ever be here," she said.https://t.co/wY7fZ7Dsdq w/ @BryanLowry3

The 20th district, which includes parts of Broward and Palm Beach counties, is notable for its relatively close proximity to former President Trump’s new home base of Mar-A-Lago.
There is no mention in the article that the district is overwhelmingly Democrat in voter registration. That’s important context for the news item.
I suspected as much and thanks for clarifying it! Wonder if this single mother is on the take and happy to join the cheaters of the DNC? If both apply and the district stays dimwit, she will be another Big mouth Maxi for life.
You got that right about being a BIG MOUTH MAXI along with MIKE OBAMA and KILLARY.
AGREE! Other such news “sources” tout that a DIMM won somewhere but omit (or hide) that they are simply REPLACING another DIMM.
Exactly, both counties are heavy democrat.
Was the Republican candidate a RINO?

Asshole we have war right here we Better Win
If the witch had any brains she wouldn’t be a Communist Democrat. I wonder if she made her wealth thru federal/state contracts? 🤔
Yeah, big whoop. It’s a Dem strong county
Wow, a rich Democrat wins in a Democratic district while spending multi-millions on her campaign. Really, what even makes that newsworthy? This article does not pass the fair and balanced test.
Bullshit that not President Trump’s area
She’s Black and on welfare
No mention of the previous DemonRAT Representative,…. is he Incarcerated presently?
Looks like the writer thought things through before posting
that is exactly the point
no mentions on the district labeling of the % in democrat map
