LIVE OAK, United States -- The 2024 election overshadowed President Joe Biden's trip to Florida on Saturday to survey hurricane relief efforts, as the state's governor and White House hopeful Ron DeSantis snubbed the visiting commander in chief.
"I don't know. He's not going to be there," Biden said when asked what happened to a meeting with DeSantis that the president had previously confirmed to reporters.
"We want to make sure that the power restoration continues, that the relief efforts continue," DeSantis told a news conference. Large trees, broken limbs and tattered signs littered the side of the motorcade route, a testament to the power of the storm that hit the Florida coast Wednesday as an"extremely dangerous" hurricane, killing one person in Florida and one in Georgia.
"As I told your governor, if there's anything your state needs, I'm ready to mobilize that support," Biden said at a news conference afterward."Your nation has your back, and we'll be with you until the job is done."
