At just 26 years old, Elijah Manley is challenging incumbent Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick for Florida's 20th District due to his frustrations with the Democratic Party's inadequate response to Trump. As a substitute teacher and organizer within progressive circles, he represents a younger generation craving decisive action in politics. His candidacy, part of a broader movement of young challengers, reflects dissatisfaction with how seated Democrats have managed Trump's influence. Although the Democratic party leadership is torn over backing these young candidates, Manley asserts that boldness is essential for the partyâs future.
Elijah Manley, frustrated with Democratic reticence against Trump, runs for Congress to inject bolder leadership into the party, acting on behalf of a younger generation.
Manley joins a wave of young candidates challenging incumbents, united by a desire for a more aggressive response to the previous administration's policies.
