Episode notes

DeSantis has faced criticism from Roger Stone and others that you would not do an audit here. He needs to appear strong on this issue. It's no secret to anyone in Florida, much less nationally, that DeSantis wants to run for President. And so this is an issue in which he may be perceived as vulnerable.

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis has hit on a winning — if possibly unethical — campaign strategy: prosecuting people who accidentally committed voter fraud. The Tampa Bay Times’s Lawrence Mower explains.

This episode was produced by Miles Bryan and Siona Peterous, fact-checked by Laura Bullard with help from Jillian Weinberger, engineered by Paul Robert Mounsey, and hosted by Sean Rameswaram, who also edited.
