TALLAHASSEE, Fla. — With a landslide victory and a Republican supermajority in the Legislature, Gov. Ron DeSantis is guaranteed the ability to continue his conservative culture wars agenda against the “woke ideology’' that helped earn him a second term.
The historic 19-point victory over Democratic challenger Charlie Crist is also being hailed as confirmation of his first-term policies, which were consumed by COVID policies to reopen the state, return children to schools and restrict the use of masks.
It also gives him a mandate going forward that, as DeSantis himself said, proves that most Floridians want more of the same.
