DDHQ Shifts Florida Governor Race to Toss-Up
DDHQ said Byron Donalds’ win probability fell to 60% as David Jolly gained ground and the contest moved into statistical tie territory.
- On Wednesday, Decision Desk HQ reclassified the Florida gubernatorial race as a 'Toss Up,' marking a significant shift for Republican Byron Donalds against Democratic opponent David Jolly.
- Donalds' win probability has dropped to 60%, down from 68% at the start of September, despite registered Republicans still outnumbering Democrats by over 1.5 million in the state.
- While Donalds recently removed several references to President Donald Trump from his website, Jolly-Graham campaign senior advisor Mark Riddle stated the rating shift 'won't change our approach' to the race.
- Other election analysts, including The Cook Political Report and Sabato's Crystal Ball, have also shifted their Florida ratings, citing a 'persistently poor national environment for Republicans' impacting the contest.
- Although Tampa-based conservative political strategist Spence Rogers argued 'Florida isn't tied,' the race is now competitive enough that either candidate has a plausible path to winning.
