In a hypothetical three-way Republican primary for president in Florida, Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) gets 64% support compared to 12% for Sen. Marco Rubio (R) and 10% for Sen. Rick Scott (R), Politico reports.
That 52-point lead over Rubio represents a massive increase since July when he was ahead by just 11 points over Rubio.
