Florida Senate race enters dead heat between Moody and Nixon

Florida Senate race Ashley Moody Angie Nixon special election polling

The Florida Senate special election is tightening as recent polling indicates a dead heat between Republican Ashley Moody and Democrat Angie Nixon. The Moody campaign issued a special election alert to supporters, citing two surveys that show the candidates are nearly tied for the seat previously held by Marco Rubio.

One survey by St. Pete Polls found Moody leading by 0.4 percentage points, while a Change Research poll reported a 47-47 tie. The Moody campaign has characterized Nixon as a radical threat, noting her membership in the Democratic Socialists of America.

Donald Trump has entered the race to support Moody, criticizing Nixon in a video on Truth Social. Nixon has responded to the attacks by asserting her position as a threat to the establishment and expressing confidence in her upcoming victory.
