Byron Donalds secured the Republican nomination for Florida governor in the August 18, 2026 primary with a commanding plurality after receiving an early endorsement from President Trump, defeating a field that included Lt. Gov. Jay Collins. This outcome, combined with Florida's consistent Republican dominance in statewide races since 1998 and DeSantis's term limit, has positioned Donalds as the heavy favorite among traders. David Jolly, a former Republican congressman turned Democrat, won his party's nomination but enters the general election with limited resources and structural headwinds in a state that has not elected a Democratic governor in nearly three decades. Donalds's substantial fundraising edge—exceeding $100 million—and alignment with the state's conservative electorate further reinforce the current market pricing ahead of the November 3 contest.
