On one side was a candidate backed by the state&#8217;s governor, Ron DeSantis. On the other side was a Democrat, Donna Deegan, who emerged victorious.<\/p>\n<h3>Unofficial Results Show Deegan as the Winner<\/h3>\n<p>According to the Duval County Supervisor of Elections website, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/emergency-wisconsin-lawsuit-to-stop-certification-challenges-nearly-160000-votes\/\" title=\"Emergency Wisconsin Lawsuit To Stop Certification Challenges Nearly 160,000 Votes\">unofficial results<\/a> of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/desantis-backed-candidates-lose-to-trump-pick-and-democrat\/\" title=\"DeSantis-supported candidates lose to Democrat and Trump's choice.\">unitary general election<\/a> have Deegan with a clear lead over her opponents. This is a significant win for the Democratic Party, especially since the Republican Party had thrown its weight behind DeSantis&#8217; pick.<\/p>\n<h3>Trump-Endorsed Candidate Also Loses<\/h3>\n<p>Adding to the Republican Party&#8217;s woes, a candidate endorsed by former President Donald Trump also lost in the same election. This is a clear indication that the political landscape in Florida is changing, and the Democrats are gaining ground.<\/p>\n<h3>Lessons Learned<\/h3>\n<p>This election has taught us that endorsements from political heavyweights may not always translate into votes. It also shows that the people of Florida are looking for leaders who can deliver results, regardless of their political affiliations.<\/p>\n<h3>Conclusion<\/h3>\n<p>The Jacksonville mayoral race has been a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/john-fetterman-wins-hotly-contested-pa-senate-race-against-dr-oz-projection\/\" title=\"John Fetterman Wins Hotly Contested PA Senate Race Against Dr. Oz: Projection\">closely watched contest<\/a>, and the results have sent shockwaves through the political establishment. It remains to be seen how this will impact the upcoming elections in Florida, but one thing is clear &#8211; the Democrats are on the rise.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A candidate supported by Florida Gov.
