Votes have been counted for today&#8217;s special general election and Matt Gaetz will serve District 4 for the rest of this legislative session - NWFDailyNews Jan Fernald entered the race late and didn&#8217;t have much exposure. So it just wasn&#8217;t destined for her to win. Congrats to<a href="http://nwfloridarepublican.com/archives/gaetz-wins-district-4/">Read the Rest...</a>]]></description>
