Florida Democrats Field Candidates in Every Legislative Race for First Time in 30 Years

With candidates in all 140 seats, Democrats aim to challenge GOP's legislative dominance and break the supermajority.

Florida Democrats have candidates running in all 140 legislative seats for the first time in 30 years.
Eleven Democratic candidates, mostly incumbents, won legislative seats unopposed, including Carlos Guillermo Smith and Mack Bernard.
The Democratic Party aims to break the GOP's supermajority by picking up five House seats and two Senate seats.
Key races include a challenge to Republican Sen. Corey Simon by civil rights attorney Daryl Parks in North Florida.
The presence of Democratic candidates forces Republicans to allocate resources to defend their seats.
