Manatee is nearer than I am but from here it looks like a classic Liberal/Lib-Dem gain on a continuum going back to Orpington in the sixties. The LDs threw everything at it in terms of leafleting and, in so far as is possible currently, solid street/stump campaigning.
Local issues included opposition to HS2 and HMG's proposals to ease planning for housing etc. It's also a remain area.
