Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis pulled out of a high-dollar fundraiser for New York gubernatorial candidate Lee Zeldin on Sunday due to an “unforeseen tragedy,” according to a Zeldin spokesperson.
“An unforeseen tragedy forced Governor DeSantis to reschedule his trip to New York,” Zeldin (R-N.Y.) spokeswoman Katie Vincentz told the New York Post. “While we’re rescheduling with Governor DeSantis for a later date, tonight’s fundraiser will proceed and is expected to raise almost a million dollars.”
