"So many people are asking me to run," local attorney John Morgan told WESH 2 News
John Morgan, a prominent Florida attorney known for his "For the People" slogan, is seriously considering running for Florida governor in 2026 as a Democrat. He has been actively discussing his potential candidacy with political consultants and has expressed interest in addressing key issues such as raising the minimum wage, legalizing recreational marijuana, and expanding Medicaid. Morgan, who played a significant role in getting a constitutional amendment passed to increase Florida's minimum wage to $15 by 2026, believes he can make a substantial impact on the state's political landscape.
