Briefings

In November 2026, Republicans in Florida narrowly retained control of the state legislature after a nationwide party repudiation of President Trump. While they won statewide races by small margins, they failed to flip any of the three Democratic-held congressional seats and lost seats in the Florida Legislature, leaving Democrats in power at the federal level.

Key points

• Republicans retained control of the Florida Legislature by narrowly defeating Democrats in a statewide election.
• The party lost control of all three of its congressional seats held by Democrats in November 2026.

Context

This election occurred in November 2026 following a nationwide party repudiation of President Donald Trump, resulting in a slim victory for Republicans in Florida. The outcome highlights the difficulty of maintaining state-level control when federal party unity is fractured.
