The oath requirement was scrapped Friday in a vote taken during the state GOP’s quarterly meeting in Orlando, Fla.

“Common sense prevailed at the Republican Party of Florida tonight,” said Florida state Sen. Joe Gruters, who made the motion to rescind the loyalty pledge,The language of the pledge was approved by the party in May, and filed with Florida elections officials in July.

“Once Ron DeSantis secures the party’s nomination, we hope everyone in the field will join him in that fight,” he added. Trump contends, however, that he would have skipped the debate anyway because of his massive lead in the polls.
