Incumbent Republican Victoria Spartz secured her party's nomination for Indiana's 5th congressional district in the May 5, 2026, primary with roughly 60 percent of the vote against challenger Scott King. Democrat J.D. Ford won the opposing primary. Nonpartisan analysts rate the race Solid or Safe Republican, consistent with the district's R+8 partisan voting index and its history of Republican control since the early 1990s. A single July 2026 Democratic poll showed a narrow contest, but broader indicators including fundraising and structural advantages continue to underpin trader consensus on Republican retention ahead of the November 3 general election.
