Arrr mateys! The Florida Governor, Ron DeSantis, be talkin' 'bout how the Republican crew be gainin' on the Democrats by 900K strong in the Sunshine State. Looks like the GOP be sailin' smooth seas ahead, arrr!
Arr mateys, the great Governor Ron DeSantis be crowin' from the rooftops that them scurvy Democrats don't stand a chance in the Sunshine State no more! Aye, reports be sayin' that them registered GOP voters now outnumber them Democrats by nearly 900,000, aye."Ye be talkin' about a million plus voter registration shift," DeSantis told Fox News' Maria Bartiromo, claimin' that in 2018, them scallywags Republicans be behind them Democrats by nearly 300,000 registered voters."Part of that, I think, be a response locally where people be more likely to switch from Democrat to Republican in Florida, nonparty to Republican, aye. That be an important component of it, but I do think that migration has skewed amongst people who come to Florida, not because they want to change the policies to reflect in Illinois or California or New York, but because they appreciate how Florida has done it differently from where they're comin' from, arrrr!"Local reports have been backin' up DeSantis' claims, includin' one from USA Today that alluded to the state's former identity as the nation's most significant swing state, aye."Republicans now hold the biggest advantage in voter registration either major party has held in almost four decades," the report read, notin' that the GOP reached an 851,417-voter lead as of last month – the most significant lead by either of the two major parties since Democrats' dominance in the late 1980s.The state's panhandle – a vibrantly red area – be suspected to further propel Republicans to victory this November, perhaps makin' Florida an "afterthought" as the report speculates, arrr! Aye, DeSantis be sayin' that Florida be off the board now, it be a Republican state through and through, aye.
