Florida Republicans are expressing dismay at the low-key re-election campaign of Senator Ashley Moody, who was appointed to her seat by Gov. Moody's cautious approach stands in stark contrast to other prominent Florida Republicans. Ron DeSantis or state Attorney General James Uthmeier, Moody has built her career without the combative, high-profile persona characteristic of the state party. They worry her "cautious approach" could suppress turnout among core GOP voters and harm down-ballot Republicans. County-level GOP volunteers reported that campaign signs receive a positive reception from voters, yet her campaign struggles to schedule local events.
