Florida Congressman Cory Mills Wins Primary Despite Investigations and Governor's Opposition

Republican Rep. Cory Mills won his primary race in Florida on August 18, 2026, beating three challengers. He faces a House Ethics Committee probe — a formal review by a congressional panel — into alleged assault and campaign money violations. Gov. Ron DeSantis said he does not support Mills. Trump endorsed Mills in February but left him off recent endorsement lists. Mills denied wrongdoing.
