2026 United States House of Representatives elections in Florida

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 took place on August 18, 2026.

Redistricting

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. 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. On May 26, a judge ruled that the new map will stay in effect for the 2026 elections.

District 1

The incumbent representative is Jimmy Patronis, who assumed office on April 2, 2025, after winning the special election that occurred as a result of the resignation of Matt Gaetz on November 13, 2024.
