Description
It’s the juggernaut match-up Republicans can’t stop talking about:
former president Donald Trump vs. Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis.
The conventional wisdom for more than a year is that Trump would be
impossible to beat in a GOP primary. According to a new USA
Today/Suffolk University poll, that’s no longer the case — at least in
their home state of Florida.
In a hypothetical mano-a-mano Sunshine State presidential primary
matchup, DeSantis leads Trump 48% to 40% — a major swing from January,
when Trump was beating DeSantis by 7 percentage points.
And national politics reporter Holly Otterbein scoops the details behind
a big-dollar Philadelphia fundraiser later today benefiting Democratic
gubernatorial candidate Josh Shapiro. Among the co-hosts of the
fundraiser is Sheryl Bartos, the wife of Jeff Bartos, a two-time
statewide Pennsylvania GOP candidate and, more pointedly, the co-chair
of Mehmet Oz's Senate campaign.
