Winners of Florida's spirited congressional primaries

via @learyreports

Florida had a number of other spirited primaries that were settled tonight.

District 2: Neal Dunn narrowly defeated Mary Thomas in what was a nasty GOP primary for the seat currently held by Democrat Gwen Graham, who chose not to run because the district became more solidly Republican.

District 9: Darren Soto beat Dena Grayson, wife of Alan Grayson, as well as Susannah Randolph for the Democratic nomination.

District 10: Val Demings easily won, dispatching Geraldine Thompson and Bob Poe for the Democratic nomination.

District 18: Brian Mast beat Rebecca Negron, wife of incoming Florida Senate president Joe Negron, in the GOP primary.

District 19: Francis Rooney scored a big win over Chauncey Goss and Dan Bongino for the GOP nomination and an all-but-certain trip to Congress.
