More Republicans registered in counties across the Tampa Bay region cast ballots than their Democratic counterparts, according to a WUSF analysis of 2024 election data.

They include the Republicans' continued dominance in the state and Gov. Ron DeSantis' influence in the outcome of the abortion and recreational marijuana amendments.

After the first day of early, in-person voting, Republicans in many counties across Florida surpassed the sizable statewide lead in turnout that Democrats had been steadily building over the past month through mail ballots.

Republicans have managed to increase their party's control over all but 12 of Florida’s 67 county school boards, according to a new analysis of election data. The GOP’s control has increased from 44 counties to 55 in just a few years.

The ousted former chair of the Florida Republican Party was previously cleared of the rape accusation.

When Sarasota police detectives first interviewed Christian Ziegler after receiving a complaint from a woman accusing him of rape, transcripts show he asked about when the information would become public and expressed worry about his political future.

Police have cleared the ousted chair of the Florida Republican Party of rape allegations, but have asked prosecutors to charge him with video voyeurism.

Tom Keen, D-Lake Nona, won with 51.3% of the vote. He becomes the 36th Democrat in the Florida House, which remains solidly in GOP control with 84 Republicans.

In an interview with The Florida Roundup, Evan Power talked about his priorities heading into the 2024 elections as he takes over for Christian Ziegler.

A police affidavit shows a circuit court judge issued a search warrant for Christian Ziegler’s Instagram account after finding probable cause he violated state law prohibiting video voyeurism.
