    I'm ashamed to know that ex Navy man wined and dined and supported Traitor Trump for four years. He's showed more outrage over books and gays than a power hungry insurrectionist trying to steal an election. Political peas in a pod butting a dark cloud in the Sunshine State.

    What a scumbag.



    “Tens of thousands of Floridians have been displaced, and today’s executive order fails to meet the moment and ensure voting access for all Florida voters,” said Jasmine Burney-Clark, founder of voter rights organization Equal Ground, in a statement. “Instead, Governor DeSantis is politicizing a natural disaster.”

    DeSantis and Abbott are both shady.

    @deb4rockets why are you so obsessed with another states governor?

    If these are your biggest complaints, he is going to destroy Biden in the presidential election...if he runs

    Noticed this in the article:
    "The accommodations include extended early voting days and the ability for voters to send mail-in ballots from addresses not listed in voting records."
    Weren't these the type of things that Republicans have been claiming lead to major voter fraud?

    It's a party of hypocrites. You are right, but they only make those claims against areas with a Democratic majority, or when they fear losing.

    It's because he MIGHT run for President. Just calling out another crooked GOP hypocrite. You know your party is bad when Trump and DeSantis top the list for 2024 candidates...LOL.

    it was never about fraud, and always about control and power

    Republican Party is anti-democracy

    they were told by the state they were eligible to vote…meanwhile, people from the Villages were caught voting twice and as punishment just have to attend a civics course

    I wonder why that is…

    Wow! Double standard for their own party and supporters. No equality when it comes to justice whatsoever. Rich and white Republicans get hand slap. The others get the book slapped at them.

    This is more vile than just this. This is a prominent future presidential candidate as Florida governor using his power to do political theater arrests of Florida residents based on false pretenses and entrapment to help spread the right wing narrative that our voting system is fraudulent.


    This is exactly what people mean when they say DeSantis has fascist tendencies.

    https://flvoicenews.com/former-char...as-led-our-state-with-courage-and-conviction/

    FORT MYERS (FLV) – According to a source familiar with the campaign, Democrat gubernatorial candidate’s former colleagues and staff “unanimously endorse Governor Ron DeSantis for re-election.”

    Some of the former staff include those who served under Crist in various of his previous elected positions, including being the Governor of Florida.

    “Together, we have known Charlie in virtually all phases of his career and public life,” the letter says. “We are well-qualified to endorse in the Florida Governors’ race because we have significant experience in public service to the state of Florida.”

    “Governor DeSantis has delivered for Florida. He has led our state with courage and conviction. He has demonstrated his ability to lead us through difficult times,” they went on. “We stand with Governor DeSantis because the stakes are too high. We urge Florida to re-elect Ron DeSantis as our Governor.”

    George LeMieux, former U.S. Senator of Florida, was appointed to the Senate by Crist. He also served as the Chief of Staff to Crist when he was governor.

    Other names include Jeff Kottkamp, the Former Lieutenant Governor, Charles Bronson, the Former Commissioner of Agriculture, and Kenn Pruitt, the Former Florida State Senate President.

    Crist and DeSantis debated Monday night where the two exchanged attacks and jabs.

    On running in 2024, DeSantis brushed off Crist’s insistence on talking about 2024 and said the Democrat candidate is the only one he’s looking to defeat.

    “If you’re re-elected, you will serve a full four year term as governor yes or no?” Crist asked.

    The moderator pointed out that the campaigns agreed ahead of time not to ask each other questions.

    “I know that Charlie’s interested in talking about 2024 and Joe Biden, but I just want to make things very, very clear,” DeSantis said in response. “The only worn out old donkey I’m looking to put out to pasture is Charlie Crist.”

    DeSantis is leading Crist in multiple recent polls with only two weeks out from the election.

    In a new poll from Florida Atlantic University, Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis is leading Democrat Charlie Crist by 11 points.

    According to the university’s poll, DeSantis leads the Democrat 50.9%-39.7%. 4% said they’d vote for someone else while 5.3% said they are undecided.

    Another recent poll released by the Mason-Dixon Polling & Strategy shows Hispanic registered voters plan to support Gov. Ron DeSantis over Democrat gubernatorial candidate Charlie Crist – 51% to 44% statewide.

    DeSantis and Crist will battle for the Governor’s seat on Nov. 8.

    DeSantis showed that he's not ready for prime time.

    His aids obviously told him not to say anything about 2024, but they didn't tell him to stare blank faced at the camera for 30 seconds. DeSantis looked so helpless, it was almost like Crist was bullying him.

    No, DeSantis was actually following the rules which were agreed, while Crist wasn't. DeSantis simply waited for his turn.

    DeSantis will comfortably crush Crist in this election. Crist chose an evil teachers union bureaucrat as his running mate who enabled a pedophile for years.
