2022 Florida Governor's Race

State Sen. Annette Taddeo is the latest Democrat running for governor, hoping to attract more Hispanic voters. Gov. DeSantis wants a special legislative session to push back against federal vaccine mandates. And are Florida ports a solution to supply chain woes?

Steve Schale discusses what state Sen. Annette Taddeo's entry into the party's primary race for governor means heading into 2022.

She will run against Charlie Crist and Nikki Fried. Taddeo was Crist's running mate during his unsuccessful in his bid for governor in 2014.

Agriculture Commissioner Nikki Fried asked for planned changes to the national distribution of antibody drugs to be delayed until the COVID-19 caseload is “further reduced” in Florida.

"I mean, this is happening not just in Florida, but it's Florida, Georgia, Texas, other states," Crist said. "And so that's why you have the federal government. You have to come in and stop these Jim Crow laws that they're passing to discriminate."

The former governor made the announcement Tuesday morning on Twitter ahead of his scheduled press conference in St. Petersburg.

This would be the current St. Petersburg Congressman's third race for the governor's mansion.
