Can Rachel Plakon hold onto a district that voted for Joe Biden or will Democrat Kelley Diona Miller unseat her?

Republican Rep. Rachel Plakon secured her seat in the Legislature in 2022 despite Democrats holding a numbers edge. But can she keep House District 36 red this cycle against a challenge by Democrat Kelley Diona Miller?

The Lake Mary incumbent said she feels confident, both in the state of her campaign and her record in the Legislature. Fresh off a phone call with a potential swing voter, she felt hopeful she could win over as many voters as it takes.

“We put forward a good campaign,” she said. “We’ve pushed back on inflation coming out of Washington, passed $3 billion in tax cuts, and we are keeping Florida’s economy strong.”

But Miller sees extremism coming from the Legislature and said the women of Florida deserve better.
