Crist, the former governor of Florida from 2007 to 2011, has served as the U.S. Representative from Florida's 13th congressional district since 2017.
Crist had a major fundraising advantage over Buck, reportedly raising $3 million compared to Buck's $30,000.
In a tweet thanking his supporters, Crist said: "Thanks to everyone who knocked doors and made calls to make this possible! I am honored to continue serving my Pinellas neighbors. God bless!"
