Incumbent Republican Senator Marco Rubio ran for another term but faced well-funded Republican primary opposition after initially announcing he would not seek re-election to his Senate seat. He had openly considered whether to seek re-election or run for president in 2016.[2][3][4] He stated in April 2014 that he would not run for both the Senate and president in 2016, as Florida law prohibits a candidate from simultaneously appearing twice on a ballot, but did not rule out running for either office.[5]

However, in April 2015, Rubio announced that he was running for President and would not seek re-election.[6][7][8][9] Rubio had initially said he would not run for re-election to the Senate even if he dropped out of the GOP presidential primary before he would have to qualify for the 2016 Senate primary ballot, for which the filing deadline was June 24, 2016.[10][11]

On June 13, 2016, despite his previous statements that he would not run for re-election to his Senate seat, Rubio "seemed to open the door to running for re-election," citing the previous day's mass shooting in Orlando and how "it really gives you pause, to think a little bit about your service to your country and where you can be most useful to your country."[12] On June 22, 2016, Rubio announced that he would seek re-election to the Senate, reversing his pledge not to run.[13]

On August 30, the Republican Party nominated Marco Rubio, and the Democratic Party nominated Representative Patrick Murphy. Rubio won with the largest raw vote total in Florida history (until Donald Trump broke the record in 2020), taking a greater percentage of the popular vote than Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump, who won the state in the election. He is the first Republican Senator from Florida since 1994, and only the second with Connie Mack, to be reelected to a second term. Also, with Mel Martinez's victory in 2004, this marks the first time that Republicans have won one of Florida's Senate seats three times in a row (Mack succeeded Lawton Chiles, a Democrat, and was succeeded by another Democrat, Bill Nelson).

Marco Rubio won 48% of the Hispanic vote and 17% of the African American vote during this election, an exceptional number for a Republican during a presidential year.[14] Additionally, Rubio's raw vote total was the highest vote total for any Republican Senate candidate up until Texas Senator John Cornyn broke it in 2020.

Libertarian primary edit

On October 1, 2015, Adrian Wyllie and Lynn House, chair and vice chair, respectively, of the Libertarian Party of Florida, resigned their seats in protest after the executive committee refused to oust candidate Augustus Invictus from the party. According to Wyllie, Invictus had defended eugenics, called for a new Civil War, and brutally slaughtered a goat, and is not representative of the Libertarian Party. Invictus has refuted these claims, calling Wyllie's accusations, "deliberate misrepresentation[s]."[191]

faced well funded Republican primary opposition after initially announcing he would not seek re election to his Senate seat He had openly considered whether to seek re election or run for president in 2016 2 3 4 He stated in April 2014 that he would not run for both the Senate and president in 2016 as Florida law prohibits a candidate from simultaneously appearing twice on a ballot but did not rule out running for either office 5 However in April 2015 Rubio announced that he was running for President and would not seek re election 6 7 8 9 Rubio had initially said he would not run for re election to the Senate even if he dropped out of the GOP presidential primary before he would have to qualify for the 2016 Senate primary ballot for which the filing deadline was June 24 2016 10 11 On June 13 2016 despite his previous statements that he would not run for re election to his Senate seat Rubio seemed to open the door to running for re election citing the previous day s mass shooting in Orlando and how it really gives you pause to think a little bit about your service to your country and where you can be most useful to your country 12 On June 22 2016 Rubio announced that he would seek re election to the Senate reversing his pledge not to run 13 On August 30 the Republican Party nominated Marco Rubio and the Democratic Party nominated Representative Patrick Murphy Rubio won with the largest raw vote total in Florida history until Donald Trump broke the record in 2020 taking a greater percentage of the popular vote than Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump who won the state in the election He is the first Republican Senator from Florida since 1994 and only the second with Connie Mack to be reelected to a second term Also with Mel Martinez s victory in 2004 this marks the first time that Republicans have won one of Florida s Senate seats three times in a row Mack succeeded Lawton Chiles a Democrat and was succeeded by another Democrat Bill Nelson Marco Rubio won 48 of the Hispanic vote and 17 of the African American vote during this election an exceptional number for a Republican during a presidential year 14 Additionally Rubio s raw vote total was the highest vote total for any Republican Senate candidate up until Texas Senator John Cornyn broke it in 2020 Contents 1 Republican primary 1 1 Candidates 1 1 1 Declared 1 1 2 Withdrawn 1 1 3 Declined 1
