Trader consensus strongly favors Republicans at 87% implied probability to win Florida's 2026 U.S. Senate special election, propelled by a fresh Emerson College poll released April 3 showing appointed incumbent Ashley Moody leading Democrat Alexander Vindman 46%-38% among likely voters, with similar double-digit margins against other Democratic hopefuls. Gov. Ron DeSantis appointed Florida Attorney General Moody after Sen. Marco Rubio resigned to become Secretary of State, granting her incumbency edge in a state that has trended solidly Republican since 2020 amid high GOP turnout in swing states like this former battleground. Historical patterns favor party-hold in special elections with appointed incumbents, though Democratic fundraising by Vindman adds competitiveness; Republican primaries on August 18 could solidify the nominee ahead of the general.
