The 1982 Florida gubernatorial election was held on November 2, 1982. Incumbent Democratic Governor Bob Graham was re-elected in a landslide, defeating Republican Congressman Skip Bafalis with 64.70% of the vote. Bafalis was the last Florida Republican gubernatorial nominee never to have won at least one gubernatorial election in his career.
Graham carried 63 of Florida’s counties, with Bafalis only carrying Charlotte, Collier, Lee, and Sarasota counties. As of 2026, this is the last time that the following counties have voted for a Democrat in a gubernatorial election: Escambia, Santa Rosa, Okaloosa, Bay, Suwannee, Nassau, Clay, St. Johns, Marion, Lake, Brevard, Indian River, and Martin. This is also the last occasion in which either nominee received over 60% of the vote, and the last time a Republican failed to win at least 60% in a single county.
