Florida Democrats got a surprise bit of good news on Friday: they're running unopposed in a heavily Hispanic, Orlando-area state House district currently held by the GOP — because the incumbent Republican failed to file her paperwork properly.

According to Gabrielle Russon of Florida Politics, "Rep. Paula Stark failed to qualify for re-election in House District 47, so Democrats will win back a blue seat they have long sought out."

Stark, a two-term Republican elected in the 2022 GOP wave election and one of the very few Republicans in the legislature to oppose a ban on government-funded diversity parades, did not file her campaign finance disclosure in time for the deadline, meaning that her candidacy was ruled ineligible.

With Stark disqualified from the ballot, the only candidates running for HD47 are a pair of Democrats: Puerto Rican Chamber of Commerce of Central Florida President Jorge Figueroa, and state investigator Anthony Nieves.

It's the latest coup for Florida Democrats as they struggle to regain their footing after years of devastating losses.

In recent months, Democrats have also won back control of the mayoralties of Miami and Boca Raton, as well as the state legislative district that includes Trump's Mar-a-Lago resort.

While the art he created when he was still working was pop at the time, and later classified as traditional pop, there is no such list for the latter format in America, and so his throwback projects and cuts appear on jazz lists instead.

The set climbed all the way to No. 15 on the Jazz Albums tally and has now spent just under two months on the rosters. Frank Sinatra’s Album With Classic Hits Sinatra released The World We Knew in the summer of 1967. The title track, which on the album is actually known as “The World We Knew (Over and…
