The latest poll numbers from Progress Florida and Florida Watch show Governor Ron DeSantis with a slight lead over Democrat Charlie Crist – 48-45 percent.

Crist is trying to pull out the upset with several campaign stops. He was just in Orlando on Tuesday as a Gen-Z group called "Voters of Tomorrow" endorsed Crist for governor.

Governor DeSantis was in Fort Myers getting an endorsement from the "Everglades Trust."
