Republicans Jimmy Patronis and Randy Fine have a good chance of winning their respective races for Florida House districts on April 1.

Two Republican candidates have won their respective congressional primaries for a special election after a cryptocurrency-backed political action committee (PAC) spent more than $700,000 to support their runs. 

In a special election for two seats representing Florida in the US House of Representatives, Republicans Jimmy Patronis and Randy Fine won their primaries for the state’s 1st and 6th congressional districts, respectively. The Defend American Jobs PAC — an affiliate of Fairshake, which spent more than $131 million in the 2024 election — supported Patronis’ and Fine’s races through media buys ahead of the Jan. 28 primaries.
