Five Republican Florida state legislators have switched their 2024 presidential endorsements from Governor Ron DeSantis to former President Donald Trump.
State Reps. Jessica Baker, Webster Barnaby, Alina Garcia, Kevin Steele, and State Sen. Debbie Mayfield have all switched their endorsement to the former president.
“As instability grows around the world and economic uncertainty takes root here at home, folks across my district tell me constantly they want to see President Donald Trump back in the White House and Gov. Ron DeSantis back on the job here in Florida, finishing the work he promised to do less than a year ago,” Baker said in a written statement.
State Sen. Debbie Mayfield said it was “time to unite our party behind Donald Trump, prepare for the year ahead and work together to prevent another four years of Joe Biden’s disastrous policies from destroying this nation that we all love so dearly.”
Florida Sen. Rick Scott also endorsed Trump last week.
From The Gateway Pundit:
In total, Trump picked up endorsements from seven state legislators while speaking at the Florida Freedom Summit on Saturday, an event where DeSantis also spoke. State Representatives Mike Beltran and David Borrero, who had not yet endorsed anyone in the race, also endorsed the Republican frontrunner.
