U.S. House District 27 covers areas of downtown Miami, Key Biscayne, Little Havana, Coral Gables, Kendall, and Cutler Bay.
Salazar represents a Miami-Dade district that has swung toward Republicans in recent years.
While Democrat Hillary Clinton carried the district in 2016 by double digits, former President Donald Trump narrowly carried it in 2020.
The Associated Press declared Salazar the winner at 7:22 p.m. EST.
