Randy Fine beats Dan Bilzerian as another Jewish incumbent wins primary
In another race, South Florida Democrat Rep. Lois Frankel defeated outsider Victoria Doyle in a Democratic primary race on Tuesday.
Jewish incumbent Rep. Lois Frankel clinched a decisive primary victory in Florida on Tuesday, narrowly escaping defeat in an otherwise uncontested race. The Associated Press declared the race for Frankel just under an hour after polls closed, with the Democrat securing 75% of the votes, including 92% once all ballots were tallied.
Her closest competitor, Victoria Doyle, had amassed 23.1% of the votes at that point. Frankel's win secures her place in Congress next November, despite Doyle's spirited challenge. A recent district reshuffle prompted Frankel to run in a newly configured 23rd District, covering parts of Broward and southern Palm Beach counties. Doyle's campaign emphasized her anti-establishment stance, criticizing Frankel for accepting PAC and corporate donations and accusing her of being "out of touch" with constituents.
The primary campaign was marked by personal attacks and a shift in congressional district boundaries, but Frankel emerged as the clear favorite for the November election.
