Wilson cruised to reelection in 2022 with 71.8% of the vote, and isn't facing a Democratic challenger.
The Republican she beat in 2022, Jesus Navarro, who works for a disability mobility firm, is running again in this year's GOP Primary.

In his last race in 2022, Diaz-Balart beat Democrat Christine Alexandria Olivo, winning over 70% of the vote.
In this year's Republican primary, Diaz-Balart faces Johnny Fratto, a former TV executive producer, and Richard Evans, a CPA and risk manager who ran for Congress in Illinois in 2012.
The winner of the Republican primary will face Democrat Joey David Atkins, an attorney and sports agent who's the only Democrat running this year.
