Florida GOP Gov. Ron DeSantis said he would not pick a sitting member in the House to replace Sen. Marco Rubio, as the House has a slim Republican majority.
“I’ve been honest with the congresspeople … that’s a big concern of mine,” DeSantis said, according to Yahoo News. “You’ve got to be part of the team and you’ve got to help deliver (President-elect Donald Trump’s policies).”
