With the polls now closed, North and Central Florida have decided who will continue to serve in the House of Representatives in Congressional Districts 1 to 22, as called by NBC.

All incumbents have won their respective races, frequently at double-digit margins, with the largest going to Representative Gus Bilirakis (R-FL) of District 12, who trounced his Democratic opponent, Rock Aboujaoude, with an impressive 71.1% of the vote to Aboujaoude's 28.9%.

Similarly, Representative Daniel Webster (R-FL) of District 11 came out on top against Barbara Harden Hall (D) with 61% of the vote to Hall's 39%.

The tightest margins of victory outside of District 20's Representative Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick (D-FL), who ran unopposed, include Representative Lois Frankel (D-FL), who defeated Republican challenger Dan Franzese with 54.9% of the vote to Franzese's 45.1%.

Representative Anna Paulina Luna's (R-FL) District 13 win over Democrat Whitney Fox was equally close at 54.9% to Fox's 45%, as some polls predicted the race would be tight.
