Senate races are now set in Alaska and Florida as midterm elections approach. The Florida race turned on its head after an upset primary win by Angie Nixon, a democratic socialist. CBS News' Zak Hudak reports.

Indian-American Pia Dandiya, an educator and former high school principal, secured the Democratic nomination for Florida's 22nd Congressional District. Following her victory in the August 18 primary, Dandiya expressed her gratitude to voters and volunteers, stating that representing her home state was her greatest dream. She will now face Republican nominee Casey Askar in the November general election, which is scheduled for November 3.
