Background

The Democratic Party had dominated Florida's politics since the end of Reconstruction, with the last non-Democrat being elected to Congress from Florida in 1882. At this time in Florida's history, the Democratic Party's main opponents in Florida were the Republicans and the Socialists. In 1908, the Republicans had contested all three districts and the Socialists two. This year, only one district had a Republican challenger, while all three had a Socialist challenger.

The 1982 United States House of Representatives elections was an election for the United States House of Representatives held on November 2, 1982, in the middle of President Ronald Reagan's first term, whose popularity was sinking due to economic conditions under the 1982 recession. The President's Republican Party lost seats in the House, which could be viewed as a response to the President's approval at the time. Unlike most midterm election cycles, the number of seats lost—26 seats to the Democratic Party—was a comparatively large swap. It included most of the seats that had been gained the previous election, cementing the Democratic majority. Coincidentally, the number of seats the Democrats picked up (26), was the exact amount the Republicans would have needed to win the House majority.
