The Republican Party of Florida (RPOF) announced a commanding financial quarter, reporting nearly $6.3 million in fundraising, dwarfing the Florida Democratic Party’s haul of less than $540,000.00. This staggering disparity—a greater than 10-to-1 advantage—signals the GOP’s significant organizational strength and grassroots momentum heading into the 2026 election cycle.
The fundraising results, released Tuesday, highlight the growing financial chasm between the two major parties in the Sunshine State. RPOF Chairman Evan Power framed the success as a vote of confidence in Republican leadership and policies.
“This overwhelming show of support reflects the confidence Floridians have in our leadership and our results where we outwork, outregister and outraise Florida Democrats,” said Power. He attributed the momentum to the party’s focus on “safer communities, lower taxes and more freedom.”

Power contrasted the RPOF’s success with the state of the opposing party, stating, “While Nikki Fried and Florida Democrats are stuck in chaos and confusion, Florida Republicans are delivering on the issues that matter.”
The RPOF’s statement emphasized that the record fundraising proves that Floridians “believe in our mission and our momentum.” The party’s financial success is seen as an indicator of the enduring appeal of conservative principles that prioritize fiscal responsibility and opportunity.
Power also credited the national and state figures for the party’s strength. “With President Trump, Governor DeSantis and the work of Republicans at every level, Florida remains a model for the nation,” he asserted. “We aren’t just fundraising, we are raising the bar for what effective, principled leadership looks like.”
The massive financial advantage will provide the RPOF with substantial resources for voter outreach, campaign efforts, and organizational development in the run-up to the next major election cycle.
