Florida Governor Ron DeSantis has called for special elections to fill two congressional seats that will be vacated by Representatives Matt Gaetz and Mike Waltz, both of whom have been selected for roles in President-elect Donald Trump's incoming administration. Gaetz is set to become U.S. Attorney General, pending Senate confirmation, while Waltz will serve as National Security Advisor.
"I've instructed Secretary of State Cord Byrd to formulate and announce a schedule for the upcoming special elections immediately," said DeSantis as reported by Spectrum News.
