COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) — A top Republican operative who worked as an adviser on Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin’s winning campaign has signed on to work for a super PAC urging Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis to run for president. A person familiar with the arrangement told The Associated Press on Wednesday that Jeff Roe will serve as an adviser to Never Back Down.

It wasn’t clear what the departure of a top strategist would mean for Youngkin, who has sparked speculation about a possible presidential bid of his own.
