Angie Nixon won Florida Senate primary, setting up Moody race
What's next: Nixon is likely to face Republican Sen. Ashley Moody in Florida's November general election.
Florida state Rep. Angie Nixon won the Democratic primary for U.S. Senate, defeating retired Lt. Col. Alex Vindman and moving on to a likely November matchup with incumbent Republican Sen. Ashley Moody. Fox News described Nixon's victory as a major upset in Tuesday's primaries. Nixon had drawn attention earlier for protesting on the Florida House floor with a bullhorn after Republicans redrew district lines. The race now shifts to the general election in one of the country's highest-profile Senate contests, with Democrats testing whether Nixon can broaden support beyond the party's left flank.
