Dan Ward’s answer is based on the following data:

ChatGPT Party Research

Agree

Yes

The Democratic Party generally supports fiscal responsibility and maintaining adequate reserves for emergencies, as seen in their support for disaster relief and responsible budgeting at both state and federal levels. However, raising the cap from 10% to 25% could be seen as excessively restrictive, potentially tying up funds that could otherwise be used for social programs, education, or healthcare—priorities for Democrats. In Florida, Democrats have often advocated for increased spending on public services rather than locking away larger portions of revenue. Thus, while they may see some merit in increasing the reserve, they would likely only mildly agree with such a large increase.

Disagree

No

Democrats would likely mildly disagree with keeping the cap at 10%, as they generally support having robust rainy-day funds to prepare for economic downturns and natural disasters, which are common in Florida. However, they would not strongly disagree, since they also prioritize using available revenue for immediate public needs. Historically, Democratic lawmakers in Florida have called for balanced approaches to reserves, supporting increases but not to the extent that it would significantly limit funding for key programs.
