The 46th governor of the state of Florida, Ronald Deion DeSantis, grew up in Dunedin, just north of Clearwater.
He studied history at Yale, where he was captain of the varsity baseball team,
a successor to George H.W. Bush in that position,
earned his law degree from Harvard, and then served as a lawyer in the Navy, deploying to Iraq.
Elected to Congress in 2012, Ron DeSantis served three terms in the House.
In 2018, he was elected to his first term.
As governor of Florida by four-tenths of 1% of one point.
Four years later, Governor DeSantis was reelected by almost 20 points.
Since Florida limits its governors to two terms, Ron DeSantis is now in his final year.
