Florida congressional primary elections

Overview

Florida congressional primary elections saw several incumbents and notable challengers secure victories amidst a shifting political landscape influenced by Republican-led redistricting. In the Democratic primaries, Rep. Jared Moskowitz defeated Oliver Larkin, a challenger backed by the Democratic Socialists of America, in the 25th Congressional District after redistricting moved his home address out of his previous district. Moskowitz secured 63.5% of the vote and will face Republican Scott Singer in the general election. In the 20th Congressional District, Debbie Wasserman Schultz secured her nomination for the majority-minority seat, receiving roughly 46% to 48% of the vote. Her victory follows redistricting efforts that altered her previous seat; she will face Republican Brent Andersen in November. This win followed a competitive five-way primary that included former Representative Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick, who is facing federal fraud charges, and progressive activist Elijah Manley. In the 22nd Congressional District, Indian-American educator and former school principal Pia Dandiya won the Democratic nomination, defeating attorney Kaysia Earley with approximately 61% to 68.6% of the vote. If elected in the general election, Dandiya would be the first South Asian American to represent Florida in Congress. She is set to face Republican Casey Askar. In the Republican primary for Florida’s 7th Congressional District, challenger Ryan Elijah, a former local television news anchor, defeated incumbent Cory Mills. Elijah secured the nomination with approximately 46% to 47% of the vote, while Mills received between 34% and 37%. Mills’ campaign was heavily impacted by House Ethics Committee investigations into claims of sexual misconduct, campaign finance violations, misrepresentation of military service, and illicit involvement in federal contracts, alongside allegations of domestic assault.
