Democratic Rep. Kathy Castor won reelection to a U.S. House seat representing Florida on Tuesday. The 14th District is centered around Tampa Bay, including the city of Tampa and the eastern part of St. Petersburg. Of the districts along Florida's Gulf Coast, it's the only one that consistently sends Democrats to Congress. It is part of the region struck by consecutive hurricanes last month. Castor, a lawyer, was first elected to the U.S. House in 2006. She defeated Republican Robert Rochford. The Associated Press declared Castor the winner at 7:16 p.m. EST.
