    Two Trump-backed Republicans won special congressional elections in
    Florida on Tuesday, according to The Associated Press, shoring up their party’s slim majority in the House at a crucial moment for President Trump’s domestic agenda.

    Jimmy Patronis, the state’s chief financial officer, won the race to
    replace Matt Gaetz in the First Congressional District, on the western
    end of the Panhandle. With most of the vote counted late Tuesday, Mr.
    Patronis had won 57 percent.

    And State Senator Randy Fine captured the Sixth District seat that had
    been held by Michael Waltz, now Mr. Trump’s national security adviser.
    That district is rooted in Daytona Beach and parts of the northeast
    coast. Mr. Fine had 56.7 percent of the vote as of 9 p.m.

    That's temporary - they will lose 2 MI seats.

    Fool Baxter just keeps saying "Just you wait, we'll win soon!"

    "Whitmer has called 10 special elections to fill empty legislative seats
    since taking office. Nesbitt believes the reason this one hasn’t been
    called yet is political.

    “It’s just politics. We’re waiting for the Democratic Party to say when the to call the election. I think as you look at it, President Trump’s popularity and how well he did in mid-Michigan and the Great Lakes Bay
    area that I think they’re concerned with calling that special election
    and having a Republican win,” Nesbitt said. “I just want to see representation at the end of the day.”

    Baxter, you fool ignorant liar,
    tell us more about your statement "Dems won MI".

    I remember the part of the Trump - Biden debate,
    where Biden gets lost, mumbles about that he killed
    medicare, mumbles to a stop, then looked around lost
    and confused. And Trump says, "I don't know what
    he just said. I don't think he knows what he just said."

    So ignorant Baxter, what did you just say?
