Jeff Miller Triumphs in CD 1

U.S. Rep. Jeff Miller, R-Fla., easily bested Republican primary challenger John Krause in Tuesdays primary. With more than 44 percent of votes in, Miller had 77.4 percent and Krause 22.6 percent.

Miller will face businessman Jim Byran, who has the Democratic nomination, and businessman Mark Wichern who is running with no party affiliation. This Panhandle district is a Republican stronghold, making Miller a heavy favorite come November.
