In this week’s edition of Facing South Florida:
CBS News Miami’s Jim DeFede devotes the entire half-hour to a sit-down with David Jolly, the leading Democratic candidate for Florida governor in 2026.
Jolly is facing his strongest criticism, not from Republicans, but from his fellow Democrats, especially on the issue of abortion. That’s because 10 years ago, when he was in Congress, Jolly was a Republican who made it clear he believed life began at conception. Now, as a Democrat, he says his views on abortion have evolved, and he now supports a woman’s right to have one.
DeFede and Jolly also discuss the controversial Alligator Alcatraz detention center, Florida’s affordability crisis and other issues he would have to address as governor.
Guest: David Jolly/(D) Florida gubernatorial candidate
Catch Facing South Florida with Jim DeFede Sundays at 11:30 a.m. EST.
