Four Florida Circuit Court Contests Advance to Runoffs
Four circuit court judicial contests in South and Central Florida are advancing to runoff elections.
West Palm Beach Fort Pierce, FL, October 26, 2026 —
Four judicial contests for circuit court seats in South and Central Florida are advancing to runoff elections, according to the information provided about the contests.
The summary does not identify the circuits or counties involved, the candidates, the dates of the elections, or the results that led to runoffs. It also does not specify when voters will choose between the remaining candidates. Those details were not provided, so the contests cannot be identified more precisely from the available information.
The announcement establishes that four contests are moving to a runoff stage, but provides no further information about the election process or the candidates’ campaigns. It does not say whether the contests are for open seats or involve incumbents, nor does it give vote totals or margins. No statements from candidates, election officials or other sources were included.
As a result, the development is limited to the number of contests and the broad regions involved. The information provided does not indicate whether the four contests share a single runoff date or are being handled on different schedules. It also does not describe any next steps beyond the contests advancing to runoffs.
Further details—including candidate names, specific circuit locations and election dates—were not included in the summary. Without those details, the scope of each individual contest and the timing of the next vote remain unspecified.
