Jimmy Patronis receives an overwhelming vote total in Okaloosa and Walton County during Tuesday night's GOP primary. He also won big districtwide.

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.
