citing ongoing allegations and investigations tied to the incumbent congressman. “People in the Seventh District want another choice,” he said, adding that the situation has prompted concern among local leaders and voters.

The challenge comes as Mills faces scrutiny over multiple allegations, including claims of sexual misconduct and campaign finance issues. The House Ethics Committee has confirmed that its only active investigation involving allegations of sexual misconduct or dating violence currently involves Mills. That inquiry has been underway since November, though no timeline has been given for its conclusion.

Additional allegations include claims that Mills threatened to release explicit images of a former girlfriend following the end of their relationship. A court later issued an order prohibiting him from contacting her. Separately, Mills was linked to a domestic incident in Washington, D.C., that resulted in a police response.

Mills has denied all allegations and has not been charged with any crime. In public remarks, he has emphasized that the claims remain unproven.

“I’ve never been indicted for anything,” Mills said in a recent interview. “Everything has just been an accusation, allegation.”

Elijah, who has lived in Florida for about two decades, said he entered the race after hearing from community members who wanted a different option in the Republican primary. He also raised concerns about the potential impact of the controversy on the general election.

“There’s obviously a chance we could lose the seat,” Elijah said, arguing that Republicans could face a more competitive race in November if the issues surrounding Mills remain unresolved.
