Voters returned Democrat Darren Soto to Congress in the Nov. 3 General Election in a district created by Florida Republicans as a likely GOP win. Soto, of Kissimmee, garnered 50.2% vote to 49.8% for Vero Beach Republican Dan Green, according to final, unofficial results from the seven county supervisor of elections offices in the massive district.
