DeSantis hits campaign trail for midterm candidates in battleground states

FORT LAUDERDALE, FLORIDA — Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis will campaign for several GOP candidates in key battleground races, including J.D. Vance and Kari Lake, respectively the Republican nominees in Ohio’s Senate race and Arizona’s gubernatorial contest.

Mr. DeSantis will appear at two “Unite and Win” rallies sponsored by Turning Point Action, a pro-Trump conservative group that targets Democrats.

The Florida governor’s appearance comes amid his own rising national profile and speculation he is eyeing a 2024 presidential bid that could put him on course for a potential clash with Mr. Trump, who has strongly hinted he will launch another White House campaign.
