Rep. Maria Elvira Salazar (R-Fla.) is projected to win reelection to her seat in Florida's 27th Congressional District, according to Decision Desk HQ (DDHQ), The Hill reported. The outlet said Salazar is set to keep the seat despite having broken with President Trump on his immigration agenda during the campaign.
According to The Hill, DDHQ projects that Salazar will clinch a narrow win over Democrat Eliott Rodriguez in the south Florida district. The report's headline described the outcome as Salazar keeping her House seat after her break with Trump on immigration.
The Hill's report, written by Ryan J. Karlin and published November 10, 2026, presented the projection as an outcome that held even though Salazar had diverged from the president on immigration policy during the campaign. The summary of the report does not state the vote totals or the size of the margin, so those figures are not reported here.
Because the account available for this story comes from The Hill alone, the projection is reported as that outlet described it, with the attribution to DDHQ as the source of the call.
