Professional politician Charlie Crist wins Florida House race
[FOXNEWS] Sunshine State voters have given former Gov. Charlie Crist the second shot in Florida politics that he’s long sought.

Crist, a Republican-turned-independent-turned-Democrat, beat incumbent Rep. David Jolly on Tuesday in the race to represent the 13th Congressional District, helping Democrats in the mission to make slight inroads into the Republican House majority.

The 60-year-old Crist, who was governor from 2007 to 2011, ran for the Senate as a Republican in 2010 but lost in the primary to the eventual general election winner, future Sen. Marco Rubio – who was victorious again Tuesday in his own re-election bid.
