Redistricting approved in late April 2026 shifted Florida’s 20th Congressional District boundaries, prompting longtime incumbent Debbie Wasserman Schultz to enter the August 18 Democratic primary after her prior seat was altered. This move drew opposition from Black Democratic leaders and candidates who view the district as one previously drawn to ensure Black representation. In early June, several challengers including Elijah Manley, Luther Campbell, Dale Holness, and Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick held a closed-door meeting to explore consolidating support behind a single opponent ahead of qualifying. Wasserman Schultz holds a significant fundraising edge, while Manley leads the field of challengers in reported receipts; the resulting trader consensus reflects her incumbency advantages alongside the still-fragmented nature of the opposition.
