Florida Governor Ron DeSantis will take additional time to name a replacement for Senator Marco Rubio, who will become Secretary of State under President-elect Donald Trump. DeSantis plans to appoint someone to complete the remaining two years of Rubio's term by Trump's January 20 inauguration. Potential candidates include Attorney General Ashley Moody, Lt. Gov. Jeanette Nunez, and others. The appointee will need to run in a special election in November 2026 to serve the remaining two years of the term.
