Donalds will replace current Florida Governor Ron DeSantis.
Republican candidate in Florida’s gubernatorial race, Byron Donalds, has won against Democrat David Jolly.
The race was called by Decision Desk at 8:30 pm. Donalds will replace current GOP Florida Governor Ron DeSantis.
Donalds clinched around 50 percent of the vote with just under 49 percent going to Jolly with 95 percent of the vote counted. The remaining vote percentages were split up over multiple third-party candidates.
Donalds was seen celebrating the win after the results were in. Crowds at his election watch party made a standing ovation in celebration of the win.
Several other GOP candidates were also able to pull off a win in Florida on election night, including Senator Ashley Moody, Rep. Anna Paulina Luna, and others. Those races as well as Donalds’ were a little close for comfort for Republican races in Florida, which may be an indicator for the rest of the evening.
