Plus: A look at how a viable third-party candidate could throw the 2024 election into chaos.

Ron DeSantis poll numbers have plummeted since negative barrage began in March.

Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL) was the target of the most attack campaign spending in the GOP 2024 primary race, according to new data.

Ron DeSantis, Florida governor and 2024 hopeful, blamed the media for going easy on former President Donald Trump and attacking him instead.

Former President Donald Trump slammed a conservative PAC after it endorsed former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley, as tensions between Trump and Haley sour.

Haley has gained an edge over DeSantis polls and has nearly tied him—but Trump still leads the GOP primary field by wide margins with less than 50 days before the Iowa caucuses.

The Stand for America super PAC, backing Haley, has spent over $3.5 million in ads and other expenditures in November and October targeting DeSantis in Iowa and New Hampshire. Meanwhile, the PAC has spent $0 on attacking Trump and merely $25,000 against President Biden, federal receipts show. 

Make America Great Again Inc., the super PAC backing former President Donald Trump, has spent a magnitude more on ads targeting 2024 rival Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis than on President Biden, despite Trump leading the GOP field by over 40 points on average.
