Republicans Randy Fine and Jimmy Patronis won special elections in Florida, resulting in the GOP control of the House sitting at a 220-213 margin.

Republican candidates are projected to win both special elections for U.S. House seats in Florida, though by smaller margins than expected in two GOP-dominated districts. State Sen. Randy Fine is projected by The Associated Press to win in Florida’s 6th Congressional District while the AP projects Jimmy Patronis will win in the 1st District.

A liberal judge won big in Wisconsin's April 1 Supreme Court election while the GOP held two Florida House seats. Both parties are spinning the results ahead of the 2026 midterm cycle.
