My Message Is Simple – After the Primaries, it’s too late to complain about who’s on the ballot. The Choice is up to all registered Florida Republicans!
August 18 Republican Primary Election Is Around The Corner
Your vote will help determine who leads Florida into its next chapter. Will we keep the Ron DeSantis-chosen Lt. Governor Jay Collins as our next Governor? Or will you be voting for Byron Donalds, Paul Renner, or James Fishback?
Regardless of your choice, the Republican Primary Election will be held on Tuesday, August 18, 2026. Because Florida uses a closed primary election system, only registered Republicans will be permitted to vote in the Republican gubernatorial primary.
