Aspecial election forFlorida's 13th congressional district was held March 11, 2014, to elect a member of theUnited States House of Representatives , following the death of incumbentRepublican CongressmanBill Young on October 18, 2013.[ 1] [ 2] in 2014 , was re-elected in 2012 with 57 percent of the vote.[ 3] David Jolly was declared the winner.
On October 9, 2013, RepublicanBill Young , who had held this Tampa Bay-area district since 1971, announced that he would not run for re-election to a twenty-second term in 2014. He died nine days later and this special election was called to fill his seat. Though Young had been re-elected by wide margins, the district in recent years had become competitive. In the four most recent presidential elections, it was won byAl Gore overGeorge W. Bush in 2000 51%-49%, by Bush with 51%-49% in 2004, byBarack Obama overJohn McCain 51%-47% and again carried by Obama in 2012 by a narrower 50%-49% overMitt Romney . Given this, some political commentators and journalists viewed this election as abellwether for the fall2014 elections .[ 4] [ 5] [ 6]

One voter was confused by a website called "sinkforcongress2014" accepting donations to theNational Republican Congressional Committee to defeat Sink and other Democrats, thinking it was a pro-Sink website. His $250 donation was refunded by the NRCC.[ 54]
David Jolly, Lucas Overby, and Alex Sink, the three candidates appearing on the ballot for the special election, took part in a televised debate on February 3, 2014. Held at the Seminole Campus of St. Petersburg College and co-hosted by the Tampa Bay Times and Bay News 9, the event aired live on C-SPAN 3. Al Ruechel, Adam Smith, and Amy Hollyfield served as moderators.[ 55] here.
A non-scientific poll conducted after the debate by Bay News 9 indicated that overall viewers felt David Jolly had won with 37% of the vote, followed by Alex Sink with 33% and Lucas Overby with 30%.[ 56]
During the campaign,OpenSecrets reported on February 13, 2014, that outside groups had spent $3.5 million on the election, with $2.6 million of that from groups that support Jolly. This makes it the most expensive election of the 2014 cycle so far and one of the most expensive special congressional elections in history.[ 57]
The Associated Press reported that $11 million total was spent as the Democratic Party poured money into the campaign in its final weeks. In the end, Sink outspent Jolly by three to one on television ads, as well as outspending him overall.[ 58]
