He got those laws passed because he built up a GOTV infrastructure and took out all the measures that helped Dems. He also pushed the limits on redistricting and won. In short he is a very, very effective guy at doing the actual job of government. Is DC a different game? Absolutely, but he has 6 years of experience there as well and he has some strong allies. He's no babe in the woods and he and Ted Cruz are probably the best legal minds in the GOP.Science Denier said:DeSantisBigRobSA said:Science Denier said:I've talked almost nonstop about 2020.

2020 was three years ago. It's over. There was fraud, just enough...in the right areas...to win the EC. That's over and done with and was possible because he's so unlikable.
This is for 2024 and he's done NOTHING to reverse the same thing from happening again. Yet Desantis has, and won, thusly. An actual conservative, that wins, and leads. The opposite of Trump.
1. Got a law passed in a local state with the support of the republicans that made up the majority
2. A president can't do that. Elections are controlled locally.
So, even if you believe DeSantis was the key in getting fair eledctions in Florida. he constitutionally can't do that at a federal level.
