Florida
Republicans currently hold supermajorities in both chambers of the Florida legislature and have used their power to rubber-stamp Trump’s disastrous agenda. Both the Florida House and Senate are on the DLCC’s 2026 Target Map, and capitalizing on these opportunities to grow Democratic power is essential.
Since 2020, the DLCC has named 47 Florida candidates to our Target Races program to seize the best opportunities to defend and flip important seats and push back against rampant right-wing extremism. In the last year, state Democrats have competed in multiple special elections across Florida to bring the fight to Republicans.
In the 2026 midterms, Democrats need a gain of 8 seats in the Florida House and 3 in the Senate to break the Republican supermajorities. With a historic opportunity in 2026 to make significant gains in state legislatures all across the country, we cannot afford to miss the chance in Florida.
