The move is a further indication that DeSantis is setting up for a run for President that will likely be an attempt to outsize the political persona of Donald Trump and his unorthodox politics.
DeSantis, a Republican, is running for reelection against former Florida Governor Charlie Crist, a Democrat. DeSantis is ahead in the polls by an average of 8 percentage points and the election is in November. Republican officials in politically red states certified the 2020 election even though the White House, and in the case of Georgia, Trump personally, pressured officials to alter the election results in his favor.
