Coco Gauff frustrated by Florida voting Republican as she shares real feelings on Democrats’ high-flying win in Midterm Elections

Coco Gauff spent the hours after the 2026 midterm elections moving between pride and frustration, celebrating a Democratic sweep of Congress while making clear how much she wanted her home state of Florida to follow.

Democrats won control of the House and the Senate on Nov. 3, picking up at least six Republican-held Senate seats. The two that landed hardest were in the South. James Talarico beat Ken Paxton in Texas to become the state’s first Democratic senator since Lloyd Bentsen in 1988, and pediatrician Annie Andrews defeated Darline Graham in South Carolina, where a Democrat had not won a Senate race since 1998.
