Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis won four more years against Democratic challenger Charlie Crist. The former U.S. representative in Florida's Tampa Bay area once served in the governor's mansion himself, though he was a Republican at the time.
Republican incumbent Marco Rubio won a third term against his Democratic opponent, U.S. Rep. Val Demings, in the U.S. Senate race.
Both races were decided shortly after the polls closed in the panhandle.
Several congressional seats were also up for grabs, including the vacancy in the 23rd congressional district with the resignation of longtime U.S. Rep. Ted Deutch.
Democrat Jared Moskowitz defeated Republican Joe Budd, while incumbents Lois Frankel, Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick and Brian Mast handily won reelection.
