    I'll vote for DeSantis (R). I see him as conservative and willing to help Trump achieve his MAGA policies. Nelson (D) is a career liberal politician and it's time to retire him. The democrats lost me years ago. Both of these candidates are decent men but each are running ads that are not completely true. That is sad.

    So further question...are your voting decisions made solely on how a person governs or do you take personal traits into account?

    DeSantis ran in Florida's 2016 U.S. Senate election but withdrew when incumbent Senator Marco Rubio announced he would seek reelection.[1][2] DeSantis opted to run for re-election to his U.S. House seat.[3] Described as a "top Trump ally", DeSantis drew increased attention in 2017 for his frequent criticisms of Special Counsel Robert Mueller's investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election.[4][5] On August 28, 2018, DeSantis won the Republican primary for Governor of Florida in the 2018 election.
