NextImg:Poll Showing DeSantis With 'One of the Highest Disapproval Ratings for Govs' Needs a BIG Disclaimer

Back in November of 2022, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis was reelected by a wide margin:

DeSantis, 44, was winning by nearly 19 percentage points over Democratic Rep. Charlie Crist, himself a former Republican Florida governor. That margin was the largest since 1982 when popular incumbent Democratic Gov. Bob Graham was re-elected by 29 points.

DeSantis won a convincing victory and was comfortably ahead in 62 of Florida’s 67 counties – including winning reliably blue Miami-Dade, the state’s most-populous, by 11 points. He was the first Republican gubernatorial candidate to do so in 20 years.

That would indicate that Florida voters approved overwhelmingly of DeSantis' performance as governor, but you can always count on the media to try and manufacture some extra talking points for Democrats. This poll is one of those efforts:
