I'm Ben Thomas with an AP News Minute where Republicans are facing growing political trouble ahead of November's midterm elections as the war in Iran keeps gas prices high and voters worry about living costs. A new AP North Pole shows most Americans see U.S. actions in Iran as excessive. In Donna Warder reports, the latest sign of trouble came Tuesday night. Florida Democrat Emily Gregory has won a special election for the state legislature, flipping the district that's home to President Trump's Mar-a-Lago. Trump had endorsed Gregory's rival, John Maples, telling voters, Maples was backed by so many of my Palm Beach County friends. Heather Williams, president of the Democratic Legislative Campaign Committee, says if Mar-a-Lago is vulnerable, imagine what's possible this November. Williams says Tuesday's race is the 29th seat Democrats have flipped from Republican control since Trump took office. Trump voted in Tuesday's election by mail. I'm Donna Warder and I'm Ben Thomas.
