House Rating Changes: Fall Outlook Shifts in 10 Districts
FL-26: Debbie Mucarsel-Powell (D) – South: Homestead, The Keys, The Everglades
Lean Democratic. It looked like Mucarsel-Powell might cruise to victory after former GOP Rep. Carlos Curbelo, whom she defeated 51 percent to 49 percent in 2018, announced he wouldn’t seek a comeback. But Republicans got new life here in January when two-term Miami-Dade County Mayor Carlos Gimenez, who is term-limited in 2020, declared he would run and bring his universal name recognition to the race.
Gimenez, 65, is regarded as a moderate who won reelection to his nonpartisan county post with 56 percent in 2016.
