Former Boca Raton mayor Scott Singer won the Republican primary for Florida’s 25th U.S. House district on Tuesday [1, 2].
The victory positions Singer as the GOP nominee in a competitive district, moving him one step closer to representing the region in Congress.
Singer emerged victorious in a primary election held on Aug. 18, 2026 [2, 3]. He faced a crowded field of five candidates [4] in the race for the nomination. Reports said Singer maintained a narrow lead over his four challengers to secure the party's nod [4].
The 25th district includes the city of Boca Raton, where Singer previously served as mayor [1, 4]. His local name recognition and previous executive experience in municipal government provided a foundation for his campaign in the Republican primary.
While the primary results establish the GOP candidate, the race remains a focal point of Florida's political landscape. Singer now prepares for the general election to determine who will occupy the seat in the U.S. House of Representatives [1, 2].

Singer's victory indicates that local government experience and name recognition in Boca Raton were decisive factors in a split Republican field. By winning a narrow contest against four other candidates, Singer now carries the GOP banner into the general election for a district that remains a key battleground in Florida's congressional delegation.
