President Donald Trump again endorsed Rep. Ron DeSantis for Florida governor, tweeting that the Republican "will be a great governor."
DeSantis has been a vocal and avid supporter of Trump's, especially defending the president against the Russia probe, and he has had the support of the president since December.
DeSantis is part of a crowded Republican field seeking the primary nomination to replace termed-out Gov. Rick Scott.
However, it's basically a two-horse race between DeSantis and Florida agriculture commissioner Adam Putnam, who holds a 15-point lead over DeSantis, according to the latest Fox News poll.
The Republican primary is Aug. 28.
