Byron Donalds says he's fighting for Floridians while taking money from AI interests. That's the problem: he says one thing, does another, and thinks voters won't notice.

As governor, I'll stand up for workers and put Florida families first.

[Jerry Demings @DemingsForGov]

No matter who you are, who you love, or where you come from, you deserve respect, opportunity, and the freedom to live without fear or discrimination.
Every Floridian deserves the chance to succeed and thrive.
That's the kind of Florida worth fighting for.
Happy Pride Month.

Maybe spend less time auditing my posts and more time explaining Florida's balance sheet @GovGoneWild

[Blaise Ingoglia @GovGoneWild]

Says the guy making things less affordable for people in Orange County.

The only thing you’ve delivered is higher property taxes.

[Jerry Demings @DemingsForGov]

Every day on this campaign, I hear from Floridians concerned about rising costs, housing affordability, and the future of our state.

Throughout my career, I've brought people together and delivered results.

As governor, I'll put Florida families first and get things done.

[Jerry Demings @DemingsForGov]

Congratulations to trailblazing @RepWilson on an extraordinary career of public service.

Thank you for your leadership, advocacy for students and working families, and decades of dedication to Florida. Your impact will be felt for generations to come.

Welcome to Orlando, @davidjollyFL.

You led the effort to defund Planned Parenthood and voted to ban abortion. Democrats are paying attention.

Calling the cops on our truck won’t erase your record.

[Anna Hochkammer @AHochkammer]

Jolly led the effort to defund @PPFA and sponsored a federal fetal personhood bill. I’m glad @DemingsForGov is putting @davidjollyfl ‘s record during his brief stint Congress in front of the Dems of Florida. @JessicaValenti

Yesterday, I joined our community to honor the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice for our Country.

Freedom is never free. We must continue teaching younger generations the value of service, sacrifice, and patriotism so we never forget. 🇺🇸

[Jerry Demings @DemingsForGov]

As Sheriff, I responded the night Pulse changed Orlando forever. Almost 10 years later, I joined local leaders and law enforcement to remember the lessons we still cannot afford to ignore.

Florida deserves leaders who will stand against hate, and put people before politics.

No new data centers in Florida. Ever.

AOC: This is what drinking water in Georgia looks like after Meta began data center construction in the community.

While Florida's unemployment rate continues to rise under DeSantis, I continue to lead one of Florida's strongest local economies with record low unemployment.

I'm running for governor to put a stop to this, and I have the record to back it up.

[Gary Fineout @fineout]

From News Service - Fla's unemployment rate increased again. It's now 4.8 % - 1.1% higher than a year ago. The U.S. jobless rate is 4.3% According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics Fla has had the 2nd highest unemployment rate increase in past year

[Joe Garcia @JoeGarcia]

Great spending time with the next governor of @Florida @DemingsForGov. It will be good to vote for someone who has been is a @democrat for over 40 years, has real experience as a local Sheriff and Mayor and whose credentials don't include pretending to be someone he's not. @Kelley4Florida @FlaDems @DHCFMiami @MiamiDadeDems @DNC @MillieHerrera @DemocraticCuban @MiamiDemsChair @OCFLMayor @TheDemocrats @NikkiFried

[Jerry Demings @DemingsForGov]

You can’t read a balance sheet. It makes me wonder if you can actually read.

Florida is now one of the most unaffordable states in the country because of DeSantis’ failed leadership. But keep being his political lapdog during an election year, maybe he’ll give you a treat!

[Blaise Ingoglia @GovGoneWild]

Hey @DemingsForGov, I didn’t bring up your name at all during yesterday’s presentation of Orange County’s $300M in wasteful spending ($750M over 6 years).

Guilty conscience?

#rentfree

[Jerry Demings @DemingsForGov]

They should be worried.

The Republicans know I’m a threat to their grip on power, and they’re right. With the support of everyday Floridians, we’re going to take them on, and we’re going to win.

[Jerry Demings @DemingsForGov]

I see Florida’s Fiscal Chihuahua is back at it again with false, laughable attacks on my record.

[Blaise Ingoglia @GovGoneWild]

If you thought I was going away…think again.

Today we announced the new (and unimproved) wasteful and excessive spending numbers for Orange County.

$300M last year and a total of $747M cumulative over the last 6 years!

It’s clear and obvious that local governments will not stop spending recklessly until WE make them stop.

It’s time for property tax reform!

[Jerry Demings @DemingsForGov]

Are they scared because Orange County continues to see strong job creation, economic growth, and opportunity while they fail to address the homeowners insurance and affordability crisis hurting families across our state?
