Former DNC Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz successfully fended off a primary challenge from Tim Canova, winning her primary by a 14-point margin. Wasserman Schultz represents Florida's 23rd district.
Canova was backed by Bernie Sanders and heavily supported by Sanders voters upset with Wasserman Schultz's handling of the Democratic primary.
And it's a done deal in #FL23: @AP projects former DNC Chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz will fend off her primary challenge. 57-43% right now.
