DeSantis' White House Ambitions and Political Moves.

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis is reportedly preparing to announce his bid for the 2024 Republican presidential nomination, with his political operation moving to a new location and his press secretary leaving to join the DeSantis political operation. Despite touring key states and touting recent legislative victories, DeSantis has seen his standing decline in early national polls of the potential primary field, while former President Donald Trump has surged in the same polls. Super PACs backing both DeSantis and Trump have each spent over $10 million on advertising in the primary so far. DeSantis has met with major donors in recent weeks to make his case as a presidential contender, and his supporters may soon transfer nearly $86 million from the state GOP to a federal super PAC that can use it to boost his national campaign.
