TALLAHASSEE, Fla. – The Republican Party of Florida held a registration advantage of 1.026 million voters over the Florida Democratic Party as of Aug. 31, according to data posted Tuesday on the state Division of Elections website.

The data shows the Republican Party with 5,385,554 “active” registered voters, while the Democratic Party had 4,359,354.

Another 3,544,576 voters were registered without party affiliation, while 390,220 were registered with third parties.

Democrats historically led in voter registration in Florida, but Republicans overtook them in 2021 and have steadily added to the margin.

Republicans hold all statewide offices and dominate the Legislature and the Florida congressional delegation.

The Democratic Party has contended that the registration totals are misleading because they don’t include people classified as “inactive” voters, who remain eligible to cast ballots.
