GOP Operative Who Advised Youngkin Moves to Pro-DeSantis PAC – What This Could Mean for the 2024 Elections

COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) — Someone who helped the Republican party win Virginia’s governor election has just started working for a group that wants Florida’s governor to run for president.

Jeff Roe will be giving advice to Never Back Down, according to a person we can’t talk about publicly. He was the person in charge of Ted Cruz’s campaign in 2016 and has helped out many other Republican politicians, such as Eric Greitens even though he had problems with sexual misconduct and doing things that weren’t allowed during his campaign.

We sent Jeff Roe a message but he didn’t answer it.

Recently, Florida’s Governor DeSantis is making preparations to possibly run for President in 2024 and is putting together a team of supporters. It isn’t quite certain yet how this will affect former Virginia Governor, Mr. Youngkin, who became popular after defeating the Democratic Governor Terry McAuliffe in 2021. A news report on this was first released by Politico.

Youngkin’s team didn’t answer any questions Wednesday night about if Roe’s actions had anything to do with the Governor. Youngkin hasn’t taken off the possibility of a bid either, and he took some steps that made people think he might be mulling over it. He has travelled around America to help Republican candidates in last year’s election, showed up on CNN for a town hall talk and also visited donors in New York.

Ken Cuccinelli, a former lawyer who worked with Donald Trump, is working on a group that supports DeSantis. He has been visiting a few places where it’s possible to cast your vote early this month and wants to make sure that DeSantis is in good shape if he decides to run for President in 2024.

Last week, people thought that there would be room in the Republican primary for candidate Glenn Youngkin, which already included former US Ambassador Nikki Haley and President Trump. Someone said that Glenn was very special because he was the first Republican governor to be elected in Virginia in over 10 years – they called him a “unicorn of American politics”.

A person named Roe said that the upcoming election will be only between Donald Trump and Ron DeSantis, which means no one else can join the race. Previously, Roe worked on behalf of a campaign against someone called Eric Schmitt in 2022 and helped him beat twenty other people including somebody called Greitens.

Two reporters named Michelle L. Price and Sarah Rankin worked together to write this report. They’re located in New York and Richmond, Virginia respectively.
