Republican women in Fort Meyers, Florida, honored first lady Casey DeSantis on Saturday with the Women of Inspiration Award. “In Florida, biological women compete with women and biological men compete with men,” DeSantis said in her remarks Saturday. DeSantis also spoke about the increase in the number of registered Republicans in the Sunshine State, surpassing Democrats since her husband took office. “Well, to give you an idea … when the governor was elected in 2018, there were nearly 300,000 more registered Democrats than Republicans.”“There are now 176,000 more registered Republicans than Democrats,” DeSantis said. “I think it’s safe to say that people across the nation fled to Florida for freedom,” DeSantis said.
