Just days before the Democratic gubernatorial primary in Florida, candidate Charlie Crist popped in at a Souls to the Polls event in North Central Florida, thrilling many Democrats in the post-church, Sunday-afternoon crowd.

Though he'll face three other challengers on Aug. 23, the congressman ignored them all in his pre-Primary Day appearance. Instead, under the blistering Florida sun, Crist attacked Republican incumbent Gov. Ron DeSantis, as if his opponents don’t exist. It’s a tactic he’s employed throughout his campaign.
