Florida. Its close elections are legendary. And this year, the governor’s race may be no exception. After an upset victory in a crowded primary field, the Democrat Andrew Gillum is running on an unapologetically progressive platform. Ron DeSantis, the Republican, is a strong supporter of President Trump. It’s a race of political extremes and the result could be a litmus test for where the state — and maybe the country — are headed in 2020.
