DeSantis Super PAC Chairman Resigns, Adding to Campaign Woes

Adam Laxalt, chairman of the super PAC Never Back Down supporting Florida Governor Ron DeSantis' presidential campaign, has stepped down from his role. Laxalt, a close friend of DeSantis, cited the need to focus on his family and law practice after being involved in the campaign for nearly 26 months. This departure follows the exit of Never Back Down's CEO, Chris Jankowski, and highlights ongoing tensions between DeSantis' political operation and the super PAC. The launch of a rival super PAC, Fight Right, Inc., was reportedly prompted by negative ads associated with Never Back Down. The super PAC has already spent over $41 million supporting DeSantis.
