Former US President Donald Trump has endorsed Florida’s ex-CFO Jimmy Patronis for the congressional seat vacated by Matt Gaetz, who resigned amid allegations of misconduct. Patronis, a long-time Trump supporter, stepped down as CFO to contest Florida's 1st District, pledging to advance the MAGA agenda. Governor Ron DeSantis announced special election dates, with the primary set for 28 January and the final vote on 1 April.
