🚨 RATINGS CHANGE: Cook Political Report Shifts FL-13 in Democrats’ Direction as Leela Gray Gains Momentum 🚨

Non-partisan race rater: “This is clearly a competitive race, so we’re shifting it from Likely to Lean Republican.”

Non-partisan race rater Cook Political Report just shifted Florida’s 13th Congressional District in Democrats’ direction, the latest sign Floridians are tired of being left behind by Anna Paulina Luna’s record of self-service and broken promises.

Cook writes in part that “Anna Paulina Luna has a polarizing reputation in D.C.,” noting that while Luna “won reelection by nine points in 2024, and Trump carried the district by 13…Democrats have a better shot this cycle due to the favorable political environment…”

“…This is clearly a competitive race, so we’re shifting it from Likely to Lean Republican.” 

The ratings change is the third for Brigadier General (Ret.) Leela Gray in the last week, and comes on the heels of polling showing Gray with a 5 point lead in the race, winning unaffiliated voters by 17 points, one in four Republicans and 9% of 2024 Trump voters.

DCCC Spokesperson Anna Elsasser:
“Anna Paulina Luna has spent her time in Congress gutting health care, raising costs, and serving herself and her wealthy donors. Leela Gray has dedicated her life to serving our country, and Florida voters know she will bring that same commitment to Congress. That is why momentum is surging in FL-13, and this November, Floridians will kick Luna to the curb.”
