Dan Green Wins Republican Nomination for U.S. House in Florida's 9th Congressional District

The race was decided by 589 votes in a seven-candidate field, and Green will face Democrat Darren Soto in November, the Associated Press said.

  • On Thursday, the Associated Press projected Navy veteran Dan Green won Florida's 9th Congressional District GOP primary, securing 14,740 votes in a crowded seven-candidate field.
  • Republican-Led state legislators redrew the 9th District boundaries in May, nearly doubling its size and eliminating seats previously held by Democrats, a move critics allege violates constitutional prohibitions on partisan gerrymandering.
  • Facing incumbent Democrat Darren Soto on November 3, Green pledged to "safeguard our constitutional government" while criticizing decades of congressional gridlock that strains national finances.
  • National Republican Congressional Committee Chairman Richard Hudson praised Green as a candidate with "what it takes to deliver for the Sunshine State" in November's midterm elections.
  • While the Florida Supreme Court denied a request to block the new boundaries, the race remains a key test for Republicans seeking to expand their House majority in 2026.
