Utility companies and data center backers gave Byron Donalds $2.7 million.
Project Tango’s expansion was denied; a smaller plan went through without a hearing. This File follows every Florida data center project on record, the money the companies behind them and the utilities that would power them gave in the 2026 governor’s race, and what happened to each project. The records show both. They do not show that one caused the other.
22 projects on record. No Florida campus has a named hyperscale tenant.
Fort Meade is the only gigawatt-scale campus with local approval, and it waits on a water permit. Most large proposals were withdrawn, denied or frozen by local moratoriums in 2026. No campus is publicly tied to Microsoft, Amazon, Google, Meta, Oracle, OpenAI or another hyperscale company. (WUSF, April 15, 2026; Tampa Bay Times via GovTech, Feb. 26, 2026)

Held out. Moss & Associates, a Fort Lauderdale general contractor, gave Donalds’ committee $75,000 ($25,000 (Sept. 25, 2025); $50,000 (Sept. 30, 2026)). No Florida data center work by Moss was found, so it is not counted here. Ferreira Construction’s $465,000 in Florida contributions includes one $25,000 gift filed under the name “FERREIRA” only, at the company’s address.
Outside spending, reported, not in these totals. Leading the Future, a pro-AI super PAC backed by Andreessen Horowitz’s founders and OpenAI’s Greg Brockman, pledged about $5 million to support Donalds (NBC News). It gave $3 million on March 4, 2026, to American Mission Florida, a state committee chaired by Sarasota County Property Appraiser Bill Furst, which put about $2 million into pro-Donalds ads (Suncoast Searchlight, April 19, 2026). Independent spending is never added to direct contributions.

Commissioners denied Project Tango’s expansion 5-1. Twelve weeks later, county staff approved 698,000 sq ft of data center space on the same site, within its existing approval.
On July 15, 2026, the Palm Beach County Commission denied the 3.59 million sq ft plan for Project Tango, an AI data center and warehouse campus on 202 acres beside Florida Power & Light’s West County Energy Center near Loxahatchee. On Oct. 7, the county’s Development Review Officer approved a 2.02 million sq ft plan for the site, an administrative decision with no public hearing. It allows three data center buildings with 698,000 sq ft of data center space plus 54,000 sq ft of accessory office, up from 200,000 sq ft of data center space previously approved. The plan stays within the 2.02 million sq ft master plan commissioners approved in January 2025, and the July 15 staff report listed it as a pending application; CBS12 reported in September that a smaller plan remained approved. SignalData found no news coverage of the Oct. 7 decision itself.

Building by building, from the staff report’s description of the plan: two buildings of 306,000 sq ft (288,000 data center + 18,000 office each) and one of 140,000 sq ft (122,000 data center + 18,000 office), plus a 68,000 sq ft utility building and a 1.2 million sq ft warehouse. The earlier approval had two 100,000 sq ft data center buildings and a 6,000 sq ft office. The approval letter numbers the application DRO-2026-00966; the July staff report prints DRO-2025-00966. Oct. 7 conditions: data center buildings at least 850 feet from the east property line (the Arden side); noise monitoring at three or more stations; lithium iron phosphate batteries; county water capped at 100,000 gallons a day for the whole site; cooling water routed to an industrial treatment plant.
Power, denied plan450 MWFour phases (150, 100, 100, 100 MW) in the applicant’s draft water table for the plan commissioners denied; power for the approved plan is not stated in its letter. The applicant says it has a binding, take-or-pay power agreement with FPL that requires new substations and helps fund FPL solar and battery projects. The 600 MW in news coverage appears in no county record found.

FL Division of Elections. Baxter recused from the July 15 vote and returned the PBA Holdings check; WLRN reports she kept a $1,000 contribution from Tomeu, PBA Holdings’ president. Woodward voted to deny. WLRN describes Whitfield as an incoming commissioner. No state-committee gifts from these donors were found to Commissioners Marino, Weiss, Sachs, Flores or Powell; their county campaign accounts, filed with the Supervisor of Elections, have not been checked. (WLRN, Oct. 1, 2026)
The land’s history. The South Florida Water Management District paid Palm Beach Aggregates about $190 million for reservoir land in 2003. Two former county commissioners, Warren Newell and Tony Masilotti, later went to federal prison in corruption cases tied to that land. The company repaid $2.4 million to the district and was not accused of wrongdoing. No wrongdoing is alleged in the Tango process. (WLRN, Oct. 1, 2026)

Power and water decide which projects move. No Florida AI campus has a named general contractor.
The documented supply chain is short: landowners, utilities, a few consultants and one general contractor, Brasfield & Gorrie, on Iron Mountain’s 16 MW Miami building. National data center builders and equipment makers lobby and give in Florida, but no Florida AI campus contract by them is documented. SB 484 puts substations and new generation on the developer, where the national transformer and turbine backlog bites. Every Polk County project waits on a Southwest Florida Water Management District board vote.

| Byron Donalds (R), governor | In June 2025 called data centers and power critical to Florida’s future. Now favors slowing growth but opposes a statewide moratorium; says state law keeps utility bills from rising. Voted in May 2025 for the House version of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, which held a 10-year limit on state AI regulation later stripped by the Senate; says he disagreed with that provision. Introduced H.R. 9777, the Protecting Ratepayers Act, on July 20, 2026: data centers would draw energy and water from sources off the grid and public systems. Running mate Bryan Avila sponsored SB 484. Denies being influenced by any industry. | WUSF, July 24, 2026; Florida Phoenix via WUSF, Sept. 16, 2026; The Lobby News (bill tracker), July 20, 2026; WLRN, Aug. 25, 2026 |
| David Jolly (D), governor | Pledges a one-year statewide moratorium on day one; calls SB 484 a good first start after years of tax breaks and secrecy. | Florida Phoenix via WUSF, Sept. 16, 2026; Hoodline, Sept. 15, 2026 |
| Blaise Ingoglia (R), CFO | Says large-scale data centers don’t belong in Florida, through his campaign manager. | Tampa Bay Times (syndicated by Tribune Content Agency), Aug. 1, 2026 |
| Ron DeSantis (R), outgoing governor | Proposed an AI “bill of rights” with no cost-shifting to ratepayers and no subsidies (December 2025); signed SB 484. Also signed HB 7031 (2025), which extended the data center tax exemption to 2037. | E&E News, Dec. 8, 2025; Executive Office of the Governor, May 7, 2026; Holland & Knight, July 14, 2025 |
Positions of the other statewide candidates on data centers have not been collected. Polling: 68% would oppose an AI data center in their area (University of North Florida); 49% oppose and 40% support data center investment statewide (James Madison Institute), both as reported by the Florida Phoenix.

Responses and open questions
- Ernie Cox told WLRN the project followed every transparency requirement. A spokesperson for FPL told the Tampa Bay Times that the Indiantown rezoning approved no specific project and that a data center there would pay 100% of new generation costs. Ingoglia’s campaign pointed to his statements against large data centers. Uthmeier’s campaign said it appreciates support from anyone who wants him to keep working as attorney general. Phillips, Palm Beach Aggregates, Ferreira, Timberline and Stonebridge did not respond to the Times. (WLRN, Oct. 1, 2026; Tampa Bay Times (syndicated by Tribune Content Agency), Aug. 1, 2026)
- SignalData is asking Palm Beach County about the Oct. 7 approval and will seek comment from the Donalds, Jolly, Ingoglia and Uthmeier campaigns, PBA Holdings, Phillips, Palm Beach Aggregates, WPB Logistics, NextEra/FPL, Duke, TECO, Ferreira, Timberline, Stonebridge and the Business Development Board before this File leaves preview. Responses will be added here, dated.
- Still to obtain: contributions filed after Oct. 16; Donalds’ federal committee receipts from utilities and technology companies; who controls the Honest Leadership and People for Honor Project committees; county lobbyist logs and commissioners’ county campaign reports; lobbying compensation reports; the FPL power agreement and contracted MW; Business Development Board confidentiality records; the Oct. 9 complaint and the county’s response; whether the Oct. 7 approval can be appealed; the July 15 minutes; Department of Revenue exemption-certificate holders and a state cost estimate; Sunbiz records for Fort Meade LLC and Silver Fox 606 LLC; water-permit files for Fort Meade and Haines City.
- Where the candidates stand on data center tax breaks and incentives is tracked separately, from their own words and records, on the AI & data centers issue page.
