Byron Donalds' Florida gubernatorial run discussed on MS NOW

During a broadcast of ‘The Weekend’ on MS NOW, co-host Jonathan Capehart discussed Congressman Byron Donalds’ run for Governor of Florida. Capehart questioned whether the race would be more difficult for Donalds than it would be for a white Republican, citing data regarding primary performance in different demographic districts.

Critics noted that Capehart’s commentary relied on a survey from the Democratic Governors Association and focused on Donalds’ performance in specific districts. However, Donalds currently represents Florida’s 19th Congressional District, a heavily white and Republican-leaning area where he has been repeatedly re-elected.
