Inbox: Update from Leon County elections supervisor. He’s was told Border Patrol agents who showed up at early voting site were stationed in S. Fla but were reassigned to another state. They wanted to vote before leaving Fla & thought they could vote in Leon. This was incorrect

Mark Earley also said this "is keeping with the guarantees election officials received that federal agents would not be stationed at polling sites. I am satisfied this was an isolated instance of agents attempting to vote before they left Florida."

“You missed bitches.” DeSantis handed Trump a coin with that message. Coin shows Trump flashing middle finger.

ICYMI ... @leonardkl flagged @GovRonDeSantis is doing a campaign event with @AshleyMoodyFL in St. Pete on Monday. DeSantis appointed Moody to Senate after Marco Rubio was appointed Sec. of State. Moody is running for final 2 yrs of Rubio's term against @AngieNixon
