With about 80% of the vote counted, Florida’s gubernatorial election isn’t even close. Gov. Ron DeSantis cruised to victory, beating his Democratic opponent Charlie Crist by more than 17 points as of this writing. I expect that number to be closer to 20 points by the end of the night.
"He doesn't care about our community. He's not invested in the state of Florida. He's really trying to get to the White House," Crist running mate Karla Hernandez said.
U.S. Representative Charlie Crist's (D-St. Petersburg) resignation, according to a press release, will take effect at the "close of business today, August 31."
