In a major upset for Pennsylvania Republicans, Democrat James Malone won a state Senate seat in a district that voted for Donald Trump over Kamala Harris by more than 15 points in November. Democrats also won a Pennsylvania House race Tuesday in possible early signs of widespread voter opposition to the Trump administration.
This comes ahead of two key special elections for the U.S. House in Florida next Tuesday, including a race to fill the congressional seat left empty by Matt Gaetz. Trump has endorsed the Republican candidates Randy Fine and Jimmy Patronis. But despite the races taking place in deep red districts, Democrats Josh Weil and Gay Valimont have out-fundraised their opponents. There are currently 218 Republicans and 213 Democrats in the U.S. House.
