Who is forecasted today to win the Florida 22nd District House race?
Updated Monday, October 26, 2026 · 8 days to Election Day · VotePredictor
Casey Askar is favored. The VotePredictor forecast gives Askar a 57% chance of beating Pia Dandiya, with a predicted margin of Askar +0.9. That is still close to a toss-up: Askar wins a little more often than not, and Dandiya in the other 43%.
What the forecast is built on
On its 2026 lines the district's 2024 presidential lean is R+8.9 relative to the nation. The House model starts from that lean, adds the national environment as a uniform swing, and weighs incumbency and fundraising in the win probability.
- District polls: 2 polls averaging Dandiya +1.0, blended with the model by how much each is worth.
- The published forecast: Askar +0.9, a 57% chance for Askar.
Misses of a few points are common, so a 0.9-point lead is a 57% chance and not a lock.
