Florida’s Sixth District stretches from the St. Johns River and Jacksonville, sweeping through the Heart of North Central Florida, encompassing portions of Gainesville and Ocala, meandering down to the northern tip of the Orlando metropolitan area, in Lake County.
The district contains over 525,000 registered voters, of whom just over 39% are Democratic, while slightly more than 41% identify as Republican. 80 percent of the District is white, with 9.7 percent identified as black and 3.1 percent Hispanic. George W. Bush received 61% of the vote in this district in 2004.
The district is currently represented by Republican Cliff Stearns. Rep. Stearns's Democratic challenger for the 2008 general election is Ocala attorney and entrepreneur Tim Cunha.
