DeSantis is on his toes. He has to be. Gilliam is attacking and not giving an inch. Gilliam is lying and won't answer the questions directly. Gilliam is perfect for keeping his supporters riled up without any facts. It's a shame that he can get away with the lying and obfuscation but it is what it is. When an uninspiring Republican is in office and things not going well advantage goes to the Democrat. Hopefully DeSantis will win but the shame is that Gilliam has a chance.
But there is certainly reason to be uneasy.
Charlie Crist was a true RINO.
Rick Scott won both his elections by 1%.
In 2010, Marco Rubio won a plurality in his Senate race, but 51% of the state voted against him.
McCain and Romney both lost Florida, and Trump won by 1%.
Bottom Line - if Democrats get their core voters to the polls, Florida Republicans are in deep trouble.
