Fried did not respond to a request for comment.<\/p>\n<p>De Santis&#8217;s popularity has grown with Republicans across the country in the past year, largely because of his record on the coronavirus pandemic. He has also become a frequent target of liberal media outlets.&nbsp;In April, for example,&nbsp;<em>60 Minutes<\/em> misleadingly cut video of DeSantis&#8217;s&nbsp;press conferences to imply a quid pro quo relationship with the grocery chain Publix for vaccine distribution. The flubbed hit piece ultimately worked in the Florida governor&#8217;s favor: State politicians from both sides of the aisle came to DeSantis&#8217;s defense, and his ability to combat the media attack further solidified him as a Republican star.<\/p>\n<p>Fried, Florida&#8217;s commissioner of agriculture and the only Democrat in the state&#8217;s cabinet, <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/NikkiFried\/status\/1399791366712999943\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">announced<\/a> her run for governor on June 1.
