Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis plans to hit Illinois on Friday for a sold-out keynote address in Peoria — with Republicans eager to hear about the potential presidential candidate’s “conservative record of success” and Democrats denouncing “the cruelty he peddles for political gain.”
Organizers of the Peoria and Tazewell County Lincoln Day Dinner — one of the state’s largest GOP gatherings — say DeSantis will “speak on his successful Florida Blueprint,” as Republicans in the state “fight the radical Progressive Left’s Marxist agenda here in Illinois.”
