Representative Debbie Wasserman Schultz is facing an unusual challenge in her reelection bid due to Florida's newly drawn congressional map. Republicans in the state redrew district lines, forcing Wasserman Schultz to run in a district that is 42% Black, where she is the only white candidate. This move has drawn criticism from other Black candidates who argue it erases historical Black representation and disenfranchises minority voters, despite Wasserman Schultz's claims that she has represented diverse communities for decades and is not an outsider to the region.
