Incumbent Republican Rep. Maria Elvira Salazar won Florida's 27th Congressional District after a machine recount reaffirmed her victory.

The Miami-area seat stayed with Salazar, who has held it since 2021, after the machine recount ended with a 1,086-vote margin over Democrat Eliott Rodriguez. The new totals were announced on Tuesday evening, and neither candidate gained much ground. The state is set to certify the results on Nov. 17.
