"Credible Case" to Have Biden Removed from Florida Ballot, DeSantis Says

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis has expressed interest in exploring methods to prevent President Joe Biden from appearing on the 2024 primary ballot in Florida.

“This is going to turn into a back-and-forth exchange and it’s unlikely to have a positive outcome,” cautioned the GOP presidential candidate on Friday, in the company of Rep. Chip Roy, R-TX, as shown in a video shared by CNN. “One could argue – currently examining this situation in Florida – whether a compelling argument could be made to prevent Biden from appearing on the ballot due to the influx of 8 million individuals.”

DeSantis later mentioned that he does not believe “that’s the correct approach.”

DeSantis often asserts that a significant number of undocumented immigrants have entered the southern American border since the start of the Biden administration. According to reliable statistics, there has been a significant influx of immigrants into the United States since Biden assumed office, with the majority of them entering the country through legal means.

DeSantis brought up the matter after former President Donald Trump was disqualified from two primary ballots in Maine and Colorado. Both states referenced a clause in the Constitution that prohibits candidates who have participated in insurrection or have supported insurrectionists.

In December, both the Secretary of State of Maine and the Colorado Supreme Court concluded that Trump’s supporters’ invasion of the Capitol on January 6, 2021, amounted to an insurrection.

In recent months, there has been a significant increase in border encounters, which has been a topic of concern for Republican candidates who believe that Biden has not taken sufficient measures to enhance border security. Democrats are pointing out that the GOP is against the proposed funding to assist in hiring more border patrol agents.

This is not the first instance where DeSantis has proposed the removal of Biden from the ballot, citing concerns over the alleged influx of 8 million individuals, including those deemed as enemies of our nation, entering the country illegally.

The governor of the Sunshine State expressed a similar sentiment in late December, cautioning that the ruling in Maine could have far-reaching consequences.
