“Since the 2020 census, Florida has moved from a Democrat majority to a 1.5 million Republican advantage.”

The claim made by Governor Ron DeSantis consists of two parts: the current status of voter registration in Florida and the historical status of voter registration in 2020. According to official data from the Florida Division of Elections, the current Republican registration advantage is approximately 1.5 million, which supports the second half of his statement. However, the characterization of the 2020 landscape as a 'Democrat majority' is technically incorrect. In 2020, Democrats held a registration plurality—meaning they had more registered voters than any other single party—but they did not hold a majority (more than 50% of all registered voters), as a significant portion of the electorate was registered as 'No Party Affiliation' or with minor parties. Therefore, while the shift in the partisan gap is substantial and correctly quantified in the current context, the description of the starting point as a 'majority' is a misstatement of election data.
