Ted Yoho

Theodore Scott Yoho ( YOH-hoh; born April 13, 1955) is an American politician, veterinarian, and businessman, who served as the U.S. representative from Florida's 3rd congressional district from 2013 until 2021. He is a member of the Republican Party. In the 2012 Republican primary election for the district, Yoho pulled a major upset victory against long-term incumbent Congressman Cliff Stearns, who had first been elected in 1988. Before being elected to Congress, Yoho had been a veterinarian and small business owner in North Central Florida for 30 years. On December 10, 2019, Yoho announced that, honoring his term-limit pledge, he would not run for re-election to Congress in 2020. In November 2024, Yoho briefly considered running in the 2025 Florida's 6th congressional district special election, as his residence lies within the boundaries of the new 6th district.
