Sumter County Sheriff Patrick “Pat” Breeden joined the majority of Florida sheriffs in endorsing Byron Donalds for Florida Governor.
“Byron Donalds understands being a law-and-order state means giving our officers the resources, training, and backing they need to do their jobs safely and effectively. It means enforcing our laws, holding criminals accountable, and making it clear that there are consequences for those who threaten our communities. I’m proud to support Byron because he will lead with accountability, stand firmly behind the men and women who put on the badge every day, and ensure Florida remains a place where families feel safe, businesses can thrive, and our communities continue to grow strong.” –Sumter County Sheriff Patrick “Pat” Breeden
Donalds has also been endorsed by President Trump, Elon Musk, the majority of Florida’s sheriffs, 17 members of Florida’s Congressional delegation, U.S. House Leadership, 75% of the Republican caucus in the Florida House, and other leading national conservatives.
Donalds also raked in a record $22 million in the first quarter of 2026 and is dominating every Republican and Democrat in the race for Florida governor.
