Speaker Mike Johnson Endorses Byron Donalds in Florida Governor Race

Donalds solidifies his frontrunner status with endorsements from Johnson and Trump, while Casey DeSantis's potential entry looms over the GOP primary.

House Speaker Mike Johnson officially endorsed Rep. Byron Donalds for Florida governor, calling him a 'principled conservative leader.'
Donalds has already secured the backing of former President Donald Trump, which has significantly boosted his campaign momentum.
Donalds's campaign reported raising $12 million in its first 35 days, underscoring strong early fundraising success.
Speculation continues about Florida First Lady Casey DeSantis entering the race, with polls showing her high favorability among GOP voters.
An internal poll from Donalds's campaign shows him narrowly leading Casey DeSantis among likely Republican primary voters, but her potential candidacy could reshape the race.
