Both Republicans will now advance to the April 1 special election, where they are expected to be heavy favorites in the solid GOP districts.

President Donald Trump-endorsed candidates Randy Fine and Jimmy Patronis handily won Republican primaries Tuesday in special elections for seats in districts vacated by former Florida Congressmen Mike Waltz and Matt Gaetz.

Update: Jimmy Patronis and Randy Fine swept their respective primaries in congressional special elections. Patronis had 65.6% of the vote in CD 1 with 65% of the vote counted. There was no Democratic primary so Patronis will face Gay Valimont.
