Gov. Ron DeSantis and his challenger, Charlie Crist, are finally facing off Monday for the first — and only — time ahead of the governor’s race in November.

The debate, which was postponed from its original Oct. 12 date due to Hurricane Ian, starts at 7 p.m. and will be held at the Sunrise Theatre in Fort Pierce. Monday night’s event is closed to the public.

DeSantis, a Republican seeking a second term, is challenged by Crist, former Democratic congressman. Crist served as governor from 2007 to 2011; he, too, was a Republican at the time.

Here’s how Floridians can check it out as the race for governor of the Sunshine State heats up.
