💨 Abstract

In a notable political move, Democrat Josh Weil announced his candidacy for the U.S. Senate in 2026, challenging Republican incumbent Ashley Moody in Florida. Weil, a public school educator, aims to tackle rising costs and protect key services like Social Security and healthcare. Previously, he raised significant funds for an unsuccessful U.S. House campaign, highlighting his potential as a formidable candidate. The 2026 race will determine who completes Marco Rubio's unfinished term.
