“On a midterm election night awash in blue, one significant corner of the country stayed red,” the New York Times reports.
“Florida, the third most populous state, withstood a national Democratic surge on Tuesday, remaining a Republican bastion even as the GOP amassed deep losses in Texas and across the electoral map.”
Said Gov. Ron DeSantis: “We got wiped out in Texas, the biggest anchor we have in Republican politics. So really, Florida is the last main anchor standing.”
