Angie Nixon, a DSA member, won the Florida Senate Democratic Primary with 56% of the vote against Alex Vindman, who received 44%, despite Nixon raising less than $1 million compared to Vindman's $16 million and spending $0 on cable and broadcast television ads. This outcome was unexpected by Democratic consultants, who would not have predicted such a victory given the significant financial disparities and Vindman's media presence.
