FL-SD19: Republican Mayfield, Democrat Ahrens face off in special election for Florida Senate seat

Longtime Republican state legislator Debbie Mayfield of Indialantic is seeking to return to her former position as state senator, representing District 19. Mayfield currently is a member of the Florida House of Representatives.

Standing in her way in the June 10 special election for the Senate seat is Democratic candidate Vance Ahrens of Grant-Valkaria. Ahrens also ran for this Florida Senate District 19 seat last November, but lost to Republican Randy Fine, while getting 40.64% of the vote.

However, Fine resigned that seat, effective March 31, so he could run for Congress in Florida 6th Congressional District, a six-county area that includes Daytona Beach.

Fine was elected to Congress on April 1, and the Senate District 19 seat now is vacant.
