Prior to Tuesday's election, Crist, a Republican turned Democrat in 2012 who once served as Florida's governor while still a member of the GOP, led Fried in a heated race that witnessed sharp attacks from both sides.
Much of Fried's criticism toward Crist was directed towards his time as a member of the Republican Party, as well as his extensive career as a politician. During his campaign, Crist sought to tie Fried to Republican politicians and Republican-friendly lobby and business groups.
