A super PAC backing Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL) as the GOP presidential nominee in 2024 is planning to boost the Florida governor during the New Hampshire Republican Party’s annual meeting this weekend, presenting an alternative to former President Donald Trump, who will also be in attendance.
Ron to the Rescue, the only major super PAC actively pushing for DeSantis’s candidacy, is planning to attend the meeting on Saturday to gather signatures and boost the Florida Republican’s standing in the crucial primary state. The efforts come as the New Hampshire GOP is set to meet over the weekend, during which Trump is slated to give the keynote address.“This is what I would call our opening salvo in New Hampshire,” John Thomas, who founded Ron to the Rescue, told the Hill.
Members of the super PAC have been planning to attend the meeting for nearly two months, but their presence will take on a new level of intrigue with the backdrop of Trump’s presence, Thomas said. Trump is slated to give the keynote address around 10 a.m. on Saturday before traveling to South Carolina, where he'll be met by Gov. Henry McMaster and Sen. Lindsey Graham to reveal his campaign leadership team in the Palmetto State.
