RESULT: Do you remember Jared Smith, the Florida judge in Hillsbourgh County (Tampa) who tried to block a teenager from accessing abortion because her grades were too low? (https://jezebel.com/florida-judge-tried-to-deny-teen-abortion-over-her-gpa-1848419163…)
He was ousted tonight. He trails 52% to 48% with mail + all precincts reporting.

The race is nonpartisan, but here's just one indication that Democratic voters supported his opponent Nancy Jacobs: Jacobs won the mail-in vote very solidly, and Smith won the Election Day vote very solidly.
