A recount in Brevard County shows a Democrat is the unofficial winner of a Florida House seat.
Less than 300 votes separated incumbent State Rep. Monique Miller and challenger Dan McDow after Tuesday’s election last week for Florida House District 33, with McDow ahead.
A machine recount held Tuesday showed McDow still ahead, though Miller gained a vote and McDow lost two.
That means McDow is the unofficial winner for Florida House District 33, which covers West Melbourne and Palm Bay. His win will become official when certified by the state.

McDow’s win means Central Florida Democrats flipped six Republican-held seats in the Florida House in the last election, and helped to break the Republican supermajority.
Brevard County is still undergoing one more recount for the City of Cape Canaveral. On election day, voters were asked to select three council members. Kay Jackson and Don Willis took first and second with a recount now needed to fill the final position.
A machine recount conducted Tuesday showed the race between Brad Pervell and Dan Coon separated by 0.2%. A manual recount will be conducted Wednesday and continue through Thursday, if needed.
