Since Reps. Neal Dunn (R-Fla.) and Al Lawson (D-Fla.) were both elected to the House in 2016, the three-term congressmen from Florida’s Panhandle have been reliably and routinely partisan in canceling out each others’ votes.

On Nov. 8, voters in Florida’s reconfigured Congressional District 2 (CD 2) will cancel one of the pair’s return ticket to Washington.

The Dunn-Lawson contest is one of just two 2022 midterm general election clashes pitting sitting incumbents against each other.

The other is in Texas CD 34, where Reps. Mayra Flores (R-Texas) and Vicente Gonzalez, Jr. (D-Texas) are on the same ballot.
