Deprived of debate, Jay Collins and Paul Renner counter Byron Donalds at GOP confab

In Florida's Republican gubernatorial race, the absence of a debate has left Lt. Gov. Jay Collins and Paul Renner feeling sidelined by front-runner Byron Donalds. Despite the lack of a formal debate at the "Sunshine State Showdown" GOP conference, both Collins and Renner took the opportunity to directly counter Donalds' policies and positions. This dynamic underscores the growing frustration among underfunded candidates who feel overshadowed by the more visible Donalds, highlighting the broader issue of candidate representation and competition within the party.
