WaPo: “Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis has been leaning toward replacing Sen. Marco Rubio with state Attorney General Ashley Moody, according to people familiar with the matter, a move that could also pave the way for DeSantis’s chief of staff to become Florida’s top law enforcement officer.
DeSantis has not made a decision, according to a senior Florida government official and two other people familiar with the matter, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss internal deliberations. One of the people said that Moody has also been eyeing the governor’s office, that DeSantis has encouraged her and that other possible picks include former Florida House speaker Jose Oliva.”
