Republican Mike Haridopolos holds a commanding position in Florida’s 8th congressional district heading into the November 3, 2026 general election. The solidly Republican district, with an R+8 Partisan Voter Index and a 12.5-point Trump margin in 2024, saw both party primaries canceled on August 18 after challengers withdrew, leaving the incumbent unopposed against Democrat Jennifer Jenkins. Recent polling shows Haridopolos ahead by double digits, supported by a substantial fundraising edge exceeding $1 million in cash on hand. Florida’s mid-decade redistricting further strengthened GOP-leaning seats statewide. A major scandal, significant national political shift, or unexpected turnout surge could narrow the gap, though structural and resource advantages make such outcomes unlikely.
