Florida’s Democratic Senate primary pits progressive against Trump impeachment witness

Florida’s U.S. Senate primary on August 18 features Republican Ashley Moody, a frontrunner against three lesser-known challengers, and a Democratic race between State Representative Angie Nixon and retired Army Lt. Col. Alex Vindman. Nixon, aligned with the Democratic Socialists of America, and Vindman, a witness in Trump’s 2019 impeachment, face an uncertain contest against Moody, who leads in polls and fundraising.
