Poll: Support for Florida Gov. DeSantis Surges After Sanctuary City Ban

22

Imagine that! Florida’s Trumpesque governor is on fire, and has emerged as perhaps America’s best governor. A popular Governor Ron DeSantis will play a significant role in President Trump taking Florida in 2020. We will be hearing a-lot from Governor DeSantis in the coming years.

Poll: Support for Florida Gov. DeSantis Surges After Sanctuary City Ban. 

Support for Florida Governor Ron DeSantis (R) is surging in recent weeks following a major legislative victory that banned sanctuary cities across the state.

John Binder, Breitbart, June 21, 2019:

The latest Quinnipiac Poll reveals that across the board, more voters in every demographic group in Florida — except with Democrat voters and black Americans — approve of the job DeSantis is doing as governor than those who disapprove.

Specifically, DeSantis’s total approval among all Florida voters stands at 55 percent with only 22 percent disapproving of the job he is doing thus far. About 83 percent of Republican voters approve of DeSantis and 51 percent of swing voters say they approve of the job he is doing as governor. Though a plurality of Democrat voters disapprove of DeSantis – about 40 percent – another 35 percent said they approve of the job he is doing.

Most notably, roughly 45 percent of Hispanic voters approve of DeSantis while only 25 percent said they disapprove. Among white voters, DeSantis earns huge support with 65 percent approving of the job he is doing and less than 20 percent disapproving.

White men are the most satisfied with DeSantis, as 73 percent approve of the job he is doing, with 65 percent of white college-educated voters agreeing.

Even among black Americans, DeSantis wins approval from about 35 percent with another 36 percent disapproving of him. Across every age group, more voters approve of DeSantis than they disapprove.

DeSantis’s popularity comes as he most recently signed into law a ban on sanctuary cities across Florida, outlawing the practice of local jurisdictions shielding criminal illegal aliens from deportation.

Florida is only the second state in the country with one of the largest foreign-born populations to outlaw the protection of illegal aliens. The first state with a large foreign-born population to implement  a sanctuary city ban was Texas.

My husband and I fled our “high tax, too many yankees” home state of FL back in 2007 and now make our home in south AL. Same beautiful weather…friendlier people….less yankees. We would never go back to FL, but are thrilled that Ron DeSantis was elected. All of our friends and family members who still live in FL voted for him. FL really dodge a bullet in this last election, as did its neighboring state of GA.

I truly understand what you are saying. We had KASICH in Ohio, supposedly a Republican, but he was not. He was a Democrat in Republican clothing, constantly agreeing with Dems on everything, including disparaging our President. We now have a truly Conservative Republican in Ohio, Mike DeWine, who is just like DeSantis. So, temporarily, Ohio Buckeyes can breathe a sigh of relief for a just a while longer OR until DeWine is re-elected, and he will be 😉

I AM SO HOPING MR. DEWINE CALLS ICE TO COME INTO OHIO AND DIG OUT ALL THE HIDEOUS MUSLIM AND ILLEGAL ALIEN WEEDS.

5.8 Million People No Longer on Food Stamps Under Trump

– the key measure of a good politician
– is whether or not they make our lives better
– tyrants make our lives worse
– because tyrants act in their own self interest
– and not in the people’s best interests
– [example: Biden taking China money, then helping China, not the USA]
– good politicians make our lives better because they work for the peoples’ interests
– not the personal interests of the politician
– so when Trump and Santis make people’s live better
– they support the democratic free-enterprise constitutional republic
– and tyrant Socialists, Communists, Marxists, Islamists, Fascists, Nazis, and Globalists
– never support the democratic free-enterprise constitutional republic
– becasue they pursue their own own self-interest, and make the people’s lives worse

“the key measure of a good politician”
You mean, “the key-measure of a President with integrity”

There are no good politicians anymore. Trump is NOT a politician.

OK, then, “the key measure of a good leader”
– is that the leader works in the best interests of the people
– NOT in his own personal best interests

Islamist leaders are tyrants who claim religious piety
– and then grab all the power and money
– and subjugate the citizenry
– examples: Saudi Arabia, Qatar, etc.
Communist leaders are tyrants who claim moral purity
– and then grab all the power and money
– and subjugate the citizenry
– examples: China, Venezuela, Cuba, etc.
Fascist leaders are tyrants who claim nationalist purity
– and then grab all the power and money
– and subjugate the citizenry
– examples: Nazis, Franco-ists, Italian fascists, etc.
Globalist leaders are tyrants who claim social sanctity
– and then grab all the power and money
– and subjugate the citizenry
– examples: Soros, Bilderbergs, Committee on Foreign Relations, etc.
————————
– etc., etc, etc, ad nauseam
– for 6,000 years so far

Yes
– Trump’s goal is a well-governed polity
– that works for the good of the citizenry
– and makes our lives better
– whereas Democrats and all other tyrants
– work for their own self-interest
– and to prevent rebellion against themselves
– they must lie and subjugate to keep power
– example: Detroit is deliberately kept poor, sick, ignorant, and hopeless
– to maintain their subjugation

If people in FL are unhappy w/their governor then maybe they can move their worthless arses to Caliphornia and I’ll move to FL!

Things are really, really bad. Worse than I thought- and I’m famously pessimistic. I underestimated the depth of deception. It’s probable you did too. My next book purchase will be from Pam. Yours NEEDS to be too. Don’t take my word for it. Just wait a bit longer. Meantime, just pray O.k.? Please pray, regardless.

Now all of the other Republican Governors need to follow suit and pass the exact same law. The people want to feel safe and to be protected by our expensive government.

Grew up in Kali – still live there – Am overjoyed to hear San Diego representative Joel Anderson for this district is doing all he can to resist the clowns trying to destroy this state with their insane ” sanctuary city ” policies

If we have to tolerate illegals then it is best they reside in a state and city where they are welcomed and appreciated and will be well cared for. I have several states in mind. The first is the People’s Republic of California, where I’m sure Chairman Newsome will impose a new tax on the working people to support them,then Illinois followed by New York and Taxachusetts. There must be some charities that would provide bus fare and sack lunches for the trip.
