The state of Florida has -7500 odds to have a Republican win the governor race on November 8, with the Democratic category having +1600 odds for Charlie Crist. The Republican Party is heavily favored in part due to Republicans out-registering Democrats in 2022 by 170,000 as of the beginning of November.
