PANews reported on April 2 that according to Decrypt, US Republican candidates Jimmy Patronis and Randy Fine won the special congressional election in Florida on Tuesday night. With the strong support of the cryptocurrency industry super political action committee (PAC), the Republican Party was able to maintain its slim majority in the House of Representatives.

Fine defeated Democrat Josh Weil in Florida's 6th District with 56.7% of the vote, while Patronis defeated Gay Valimont in Florida's 1st District with 57% of the vote. Both campaigns received strong support from "Defend American Jobs", a Republican-focused cryptocurrency political action committee that is part of the broader Fairshake political funding network. The media said that these victories once again represent a victory for the interests of the cryptocurrency industry.
