The money story

Democratic nominee. Campaign has publicly cited more than $2M raised across the candidate committee and Florida 2026 support committee — far behind Donalds’ ~$99M state war chest, but the clearest Dem fundraising lead in the primary field. Update from FL DOS / Transparency USA as Q reports post.

Governor is a state race — FEC House ID H4FL13101 is historical (2014 cycle), not the 2026 governor committee.
