Background
Florida was represented by three Democrats in 1906, continuing their long-term domination of politics in Florida (and other Southern States). In the previous election, the Democratic candidate had faced a Republican and a Socialist opponent. In 1906, in contrast, the Socialists ran candidates in the 1st and 3rd district, while the Republicans ran a candidate in the 2nd district, so that each district had only two candidates running. All three incumbents ran successfully for re-election.
