Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis will hold a speaking event in South Carolina this week, making his first public appearance in the state ahead of a potential 2024 presidential bid.
South Carolina is a key state in the presidential primary cycle as it is the third state to hold a primary or caucus contest after only the Iowa Caucus and the New Hampshire Primary. It also includes a more diverse population than the states before it.
The event will take place in Spartanburg, where State Sen. Josh Kimbrell will host DeSantis on April 19.
