As a Floridian, it's hard to put into words how much of a disaster Ron Desantis is. Most people here in the south of the state bar some snowbird cities hate the guy, and he's gotten away with far too many blatantly unconstitutional laws.

So, how was he elected?

Because there are more people in the center & north of the state. And those areas are bleeding heart conservative.
