✓ Media reaction (The Hill):
> The race between Rubio and Demings has often taken a back seat to Senate contests in other battlegrounds such as Arizona, Georgia and Pennsylvania. But Tuesday night’s debate made clear it’s anything but a sleepy affair.
> Demings, a rising Democratic star, has struggled to chip away at Rubio’s base of support in the way she’ll need in order to win in November. Tuesday’s debate doesn’t seem likely to change that.
> Overall, the debate put into stark relief the animosity between Rubio and Demings, making public the tensions that have been simmering between the two politicians for months.
