Ron DeSantis in Excellent Shape in Florida, According to a New Poll

Mason Dixon released a poll on Tuesday showing Gov. Ron DeSantis in excellent shape in the Sunshine State.

DeSantis is approved by 59 percent of Florida voters while 39 percent disapprove of him and 2 are unsure. That’s an improvement from September–the last Mason Dixon poll of the subject–which found DeSantis approved by 55 percent and disapproved by 42 percent.

More than half of those surveyed–53 percent–see DeSantis as favorable while 36 percent view him unfavorably, 9 percent are neutral on him and 2 percent have no idea who he is. According to the poll, DeSantis has nailed down the GOP base in Florida with 87 percent of Republicans across the state seeing him favorably while 7 percent see him unfavorably and 6 percent are neutral.

With DeSantis a potential candidate for the Republican presidential nomination next year, he leads the GOP field in Florida with 44 percent followed by former President Donald Trump at 9 percent, former UN Amb. Nikki Haley at 3 percent, 2 percent backing other candidates and 12 percent undecided.
