(I hear rumors that Florida Surgeon General, Joseph Lapado, is on the short list for Secretary of HHS.)
Gov. DeSantis already working on replacing three Florida Republicans picked by President Trump.
DeSantis, who is currently in Italy, tweeted early this morning:
Congratulations to the Floridians being appointed to key positions in the Trump Administration: Senator Marco Rubio, Congressman Matt Gaetz, and Congressman Mike Waltz.
I’ve instructed Secretary of State Cord Byrd to formulate and announce a schedule for the upcoming special elections immediately.
According to Florida law, DeSantis can pick a replacement himself for Senator Marco Rubio to serve out the remainder of his term, which ends in 2028.
Both Gaetz and Waltz will require special elections and hopefully those will be done before January 3rd, allowing Republicans to keep their small majority.
