Sen. Rick Scott (R-FL) won reelection to a second term Tuesday night, prevailing over Democratic challenger and former Rep. Debbie Mucarsel-Powell.

Scott led Mucarsel-Powell 55%-43% when the Associated Press called the contest just one minute after polls closed statewide at 8:01 p.m. ET, with about 83% of the ballots counted.

In what was once a purple state, national Democrats exerted modest campaign spending in Florida late in the race with tempered expectations they could return the Sunshine State to its former battleground status.

Scott’s reelection means he will be able to continue his long-shot bid to succeed Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY), an internal election that Republican senators will hold next week when they return to Washington.

Mucarsel-Powell previously served one term in the U.S. House from 2019 to 2021 in a South Florida district and lost reelection in 2020 to Rep. Carlos Gimenez (R-FL).
