Poll: Donalds, Casey DeSantis lead Fla. Gov. race

UCF Political Science Lecturer John Hanley joins FOX 35's Garrett Wymer live via Zoom to break down a new poll from UNF showing the state of the race for Florida's next Governor in 2026. According to the poll, Republicans lead by double digits, regardless of if Congressman Byron Donalds or Florida First Lady Casey DeSantis makes it out of the primary, and whether they face former Congressman David Jolly or Orange County Mayor Jerry Demings. The poll also took a look at the top issues facing Floridians, which came out to a focus on housing, property insurance, property tax and the economy.

The University of North Florida Public Opinion Research Lab released results of the survey on Tuesday.
