FL-HD113: Vicki Lopez (R) faces underdog challenger Jackie Gross-Kellogg (D) in red-shifting HD 113
Republican Rep. Vicki Lopez is leaning on her record of accomplishments, legislative backbone and gargantuan funding advantage to win a second term representing House District 113 in Miami-Dade.
Her underfunded and, until recently, overlooked Democratic challenger, Jackie Gross-Kellogg, is hoping unflattering recent press about the incumbent and the district’s historically left-leaning electoral tendencies to deliver her an upset.
Whichever way it goes, the race has become one of the most-watched House contests this cycle.
HD 113 spans a coastal, center-east portion of the county, covering Key Biscayne and parts of Coral Gables and Miami. It contains Virginia Key and PortMiami, one of Miami-Dade’s top two economic engines.
Voters in the district picked Joe Biden over Donald Trump by 11.5 points in 2020, but swung for Gov. Ron DeSantis two years later by 5.5 points.
