WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. (AP) — U.S. Sen. Rick Scott has won Florida’s Republican primary as he seeks a second term in office. He’ll face Democratic former U.S. Rep. Debbie Mucarsel-Powell in November in a race that could largely hinge on the success of their parties’ presidential candidates. Scott is set to start the general election as the favorite with the advantage in incumbency and an enormous campaign account. U.S. Rep. Matt Gaetz also defeated an opponent backed by former House Speaker Kevin McCarthy to win the Republican primary in one of Florida’s most conservative congressional districts.
