Congresswoman María Elvira Salazar confirmed her win in Florida's electoral district after the official state election authorities conducted the vote count.
According to El País, the Republican candidate won by a margin of just under one point in the final results. The exact figure was not publicly disclosed in the source consulted, but it was indicated that the lead was insufficient to be considered substantial.
Salazar, who had previously announced before the count that she expected a secure re-election, faced intense competition in the district, where voting differences were narrow and depended on hundreds of individual votes.
The vote count officially concluded on November 10, 2026. Florida's electoral authorities declared the final results after a verification process that included reviewing more than two million digital and physical ballots.
