U.S. Rep. Byron Donalds announced that he's running to be the next governor of Florida in 2026, positioning himself as a possible successor to Gov. Ron DeSantis, who will reach his term limit for the office after serving eight years.

Donalds, who served four years in the Florida Legislature before being elected to Congress in 2020, is running with the support of President Donald Trump. The president announced late last week that, were Donalds to campaign to succeed DeSantis, he would do so with the Trump’s endorsement.
