U.S. Rep. Byron Donalds (R-FL) shifted his message toward affordability and a broader Florida electorate after winning the Republican primary for governor on Tuesday, delivering a victory speech that did not mention President Donald Trump or the endorsement he had prominently featured throughout the primary campaign.
Donalds, a U.S. congressman, won the GOP nomination with about 48% of the vote defeating a field that included Jay Collins, who finished second with 25%. He will face Democratic nominee David Jolly, a former Republican congressman and Trump critic, in November.
