Media blast DeSantis easing voter rules in areas hit hardest by Hurricane Ian because they are more Republican

Media pundits claimed Gov. Ron DeSantis, R-Fla., pulled back voting restrictions only for 'Republican strongholds' in the wake of Hurricane Ian hitting Florida.

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis joined 'Unfiltered' to provide updates on relief efforts in the state after Hurricane Ian and how the country can help.

Although the order is set to assist tens of thousands of displaced citizens in these counties, some attacked the voter assistance by suggesting that it is politically motivated for the midterm elections. The Guardian reporter Gloria Oladipo published a similar piece on Friday claiming that"anger" had erupted after DeSantis eased voting restrictions in"Republican areas."
