Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis said registered Republican voters are gaining on Democratic voters, saying that higher taxes and left-wing policies in other states have forced more to move to Florida in recent years.

“When Donald Trump beat Hillary Clinton, there were about 350,000 more registered Democrats than Republicans in the state of Florida,” DeSantis, a Republican, told radio host Mark Levin. “Now, it’s less than a 180,000 differential, and we think ... it may be closer to 150,000.”
