Evan Power, who leads Florida's Republican Party, has been defeated in his attempt to win the GOP primary for the state's 2nd Congressional District. Running among eight candidates to replace retiring Representative Neal Dunn, Power finished in fourth place and failed to secure the party's nomination for the seat.

Austin Rogers won the competitive primary race, earning the Republican nomination to represent the district. The loss marks a notable setback for Power as party chairman, demonstrating that party leadership does not guarantee success in a crowded primary election.
