THEIR SEAT WAS REDRAWND+3.5 → R+17.8

Florida redrew its congressional map in a 2026 special session. Gov. Ron DeSantis signed the new plan (HB 1-D) on May 4, 2026; it changed 21 of the state's 28 districts. It now stretches from Orlando and Kissimmee into Indian River County and other interior counties. The new lines flip the district, going from Harris +3.5 to Trump +17.8 in the 2024 presidential vote.
