Governor DeSantis made an announcement this weekend that was shocking, in a good way.
He announced that 97.79 percent of the power outages from Hurricane Ian had been restored.
That is a stunning accomplishment considering the damage that the state had suffered.
Be Prepared
This is all because of the preparation by DeSantis.
He declared a state of emergency long before he even knew if Ian was going to hit.
This gave him the time to have more than 42,000 linemen in place and 1.6 million gallons of fuel to run emergency generators.
The moment the storm blew back out to sea, they went to work.
It is an utterly amazing job that people should be congratulating him for, but the trolls decided to take some cheap shots at him instead...

Late-night TV slug Jimmy Kimmel added, "You're not allowed to pass a 'Don't Say Gay' bill then show up in public dressed like Nancy Sinatra."
DeSantis' office brushed it right off...
Construction on the Pine Island bridge has been completed today – just three days after construction began.
Happy to have the state step in and help get our Pine Island residents back on their feet. pic.twitter.com/a8GqPoHtP1

Dems were hoping he would crash and burn so Charlie Crist would win the election, but there is no way the people of Florida will vote against him now.
