Florida Gov. Ron de Sandis said Friday that if Stacey Abrams wins Georgia’s election this fall, there will be a “cold war” between the two states. “If Stacey Abrams is elected governor of Georgia, I just want to be honest, this is going to be a cold war between Florida and Georgia,” de Sandis told a news conference on infrastructure, according to The Hill. “I can not have Castro in the south and Abrams in the north, that would be a disaster,” he said, referring to Cuba. “So I hope you take care of it and we end up in good condition.” He added that he “really appreciates our Georgians”.

Since then, he has become the star of the Democratic Party credited by the Liberals for attracting more black voters to the polls and electing Democratic senators Rafael Warnock and John Osoff.

David Perdue is also running against Kemp. In a statement to Newsweek, a DeSantis spokesman said: “The governor just made a comparison with the strong ideological differences that supported the Cold War. If Stacey Abrams wins the governor of Georgia, we know that her approach to leadership will include more “Heavy government, taxes and bureaucratic influence. In Florida, Governor DeSantis will continue to keep Florida free and give people priority.” DeSantis’s office did not immediately respond to a request for comment by Fox News. Kemp and Perdue are ahead of Abrams in the latest poll, according to The Hill.
