2026 United States House of Representatives elections in Florida
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The 2026 United States House of Representatives elections in Florida will be held on November 3, 2026, to elect the 28 U.S. representatives from the State of Florida, one from each of the state's congressional districts. The elections will coincide with other elections to the House of Representatives, elections to the United States Senate, and various state and local elections. The primary elections will take place on August 18, 2026.[1]

On April 29, 2026, the Florida House of Representatives and State Senate passed a new congressional district map proposed by Governor Ron DeSantis during a special legislative session. The map, which takes effect for the 2026 elections, is expected to result in a 24–4 Republican-Democratic split among the state's 28 congressional districts.[2][3] Governor DeSantis signed the redistricting map into law on May 4. The map is being challenged in court on the basis that it violates the Fair Districts Amendment to the state constitution that passed in 2010, which prohibits an explicitly partisan map.[4] On May 26, a judge ruled that the new map will stay in effect for the 2026 elections.[5]

The incumbent is Republican Randy Fine, who assumed office on April 2, 2025 after winning the special election that occurred after Mike Waltz resigned to become U.S. National Security Advisor. Fine was elected with 56.6% of the vote.
Fine's anti-Palestinian, Islamophobic, and racist comments on X regarding the Gaza war have sparked controversy and backlash, including condemnation from the American Jewish Committee.[82][83][84] Combined with the fact that his primary residence is located in Melbourne Beach, well outside the boundaries of the 6th district, Fine has been seen as vulnerable to a primary challenger.[85] However, Fine's three serious challengers are also viewed as likely to split the anti-Fine vote.[86]
Gambaro has attacked Fine for his anti-Palestinian racism and called him a "security risk", while Baker has also criticized Fine as Israel First.[86] Conversely, Bilzerian has engaged in racist rhetoric, calling Fine a "fat Jew"; Bilzerian defended his comments by saying that Fine has made worse comments, pointing to when Fine stated that he preferred dogs to Muslims.[86]
