Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.) has secured a significant victory in the GOP primary for Florida's 1st Congressional District, defeating Navy veteran Aaron Dimmock by over 40 points, despite substantial funding for anti-Gaetz attack ads from allies of former Speaker Kevin McCarthy. Gaetz, who played a pivotal role in McCarthy's ouster, faced a challenge branded as part of McCarthy's 'revenge tour.' Meanwhile, Democrats are focused on the upcoming Senate race in Florida, where former Rep. Debbie Mucarsel-Powell won her primary and aims to capitalize on polling that shows her competitive against the incumbent. In Alaska, Rep. Mary Peltola advanced to the general election through the ranked-choice voting system, amidst concerns for her reelection given her vulnerability. As the political landscape shifts, both parties are gearing up for intense competition, particularly in Florida, a key battleground state.
