>Florida primary elections are being held today, Tuesday, August 18, 2026

>Alaska and Wyoming are also holding statewide primary elections today, Tuesday, August 18, 2026. Additionally, California is holding a special congressional election today.

The Florida primary elections feature high-stakes battles to succeed term-limited Governor Ron DeSantis, alongside crucial contests shaped by a newly implemented congressional map.

>▶ The Governor’s Race
Because Governor Ron DeSantis cannot run for re-election due to term limits, Florida is holding its first wide-open gubernatorial race in eight years.

>▶ Local and Down-Ballot Contests
* State Legislature & Judicial Seats
* Nonpartisan Elections: Because Florida uses a closed-primary system for partisan races, independent voters are predominantly turning out for highly contested, nonpartisan local school board elections and municipal races.

>Florida polls close at 7:00 PM local time. However, since Florida has two time zones (Central and Eastern), preliminary election night results will not be released until 8:00 p.m. Eastern Time.
