USA NEWS: Democrat Charlie Crist clearly knew that Monday night’s TV debate likely proved his last chance to change the course of his flagging and out-financed campaign against Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis.
Trailing in the polls and vastly outspent, Crist went at DeSantis at the outset of the hourlong debate from Fort Pierce’s Sunrise Theatre.
“You’re going to hear a stark contrast in this debate and this election,” Crist said in his opening statement. “It’s a stark contrast between somebody who believes in a woman’s right to choose, I think that’s fundamentally important, and Gov. DeSantis has signed a bill that would restrict that right, even in cases of rape or incest.”
