  • Republicans are expected to win the two red districts, but political watchers will be eyeing turnout and margins as indicators of voter sentiment about Trump's second term and the GOP's future electoral prospects.

The article discusses the upcoming special elections in Florida for two vacant state House seats, which are seen as a litmus test for former President Donald Trump's influence in the state as he eyes a potential second term. These elections are taking place in House Districts 35 and 118, with the outcomes potentially signaling the political climate in Florida, a key battleground state. In District 35, Democrat Tom Keen faces Republican Erika Booth, following the resignation of the previous representative. In District 118, Republican Mike Redondo is up against Democrat Johnny Farias, after the seat was vacated due to the incumbent's election to the state Senate. The races are closely watched due to their implications for party control in the Florida House, where Republicans currently hold a supermajority. The results could reflect voter sentiment on issues like abortion rights, education, and economic policies, especially in light of recent political shifts and Trump's endorsement power.
