  "account": "In Florida's 20th Congressional District, Democrat Debbie Wasserman Schultz secured a decisive victory in the 2026 U.S. House election, defeating Republican Brent Andersen. Wasserman Schultz, who previously served in the state's House and Senate, marked her 12th term in office, making her the first Jewish congresswoman elected from Florida. Her strategic move to a new congressional district proved advantageous, as she claimed victory at 7:09 p.m. EST, as declared by the Associated Press. Andersen, a former businessman in commercial and property insurance, argued that his industry experience allowed him to offer insights on reducing property insurance costs, a pressing issue in Florida.",
