Jacksonville Mayor Lenny Curry going out of office the way he came in — playing political games.

Does Jacksonville Mayor Lenny Curry believe that, as a matter of good governance, Ron DeSantis should be required to resign as governor before running for president?

: “While there are many good people have served their entire careers in elected office, I just think ‘resign to run’ is the right thing to do.” While Curry has implored local citizens to voice their opinion on resign-to-run in Jacksonville — even posting a poll on Twitter — he has declined to say much of anything about the state debate.
