County election offices control precinct assignments, Election Day polling places, early-voting locations, dates, hours, wait times, and personalized voter records. Recheck the applicable official source before traveling. The official assigned-place table places Cape Coral, Bonita Springs, Estero, Fort Myers Beach, Sanibel, and Naples wholly within District 19. District 19 includes only defined portions of Lee and Collier counties. A postal city name, ZIP code, county name, or mailing address does not by itself establish a congressional district. ## 2026 FL-19 election guide boundary - The current Florida general-election list identifies four qualified FL-19 candidates: Victor Arias (DEM), Jim Schwartzel (REP), Seth Haskin (NPA), and Alexandra Zakhvatayev (WRI). - The official August 18, 2026 primary summaries report Victor Arias as the Democratic winner with 15,410 votes (45.5%) and Jim Schwartzel as the Republican winner with 26,153 votes (29.1%). - Madison Cawthorn received 7,596 votes (8.5%) in the Republican primary, was defeated, and is not on the current qualified general-election list. - The phrase "FL-19 polling" can refer to an official polling place or to a public-opinion survey. The guide publishes no public-opinion race number without the pollster, sponsor, sample, field dates, questionnaire, and methodology. - Election-guide sources reviewed: 2026-10-21. Candidate status and election administration can change; the linked state or county authority remains the source of truth. ## Source discipline Do not infer policy commitments, endorsements, funding amounts, polling, rankings, event details, candidate attendance, affiliations, or guarantees that the cited pages do not state. A venue or organizer listing does not prove candidate participation or endorsement. The District Pulse identifies the original public source for each published briefing and does not assign unexplained numerical credibility scores or claim that AI independently verifies facts. ## News and media discovery - Collection: https://ariasforcongress.us/press/coverage/ - Read-only JSON: https://ariasforcongress.us/api/press-coverage - Atom feed: https://ariasforcongress.us/press/coverage/feed.xml - Machine-readable guide: https://ariasforcongress.us/press/coverage/llms.txt - Classification boundary: Media Alert Press distribution information is separate from independent reporting and campaign resources; inclusion does not imply endorsement.
