“Resign-to-run” should be the law of the land. Why should taxpayers foot the bill for DeSantis’, or anyone else’s, campaign? Who’ll be doing the job he was elected to do while he runs for President?
Why is the draft a law, or the income tax? Why was FDR allowed to seize privately-owned specie, or Nixon to untie currency from money? Why is the NSA allowed to trade intel on Brits for intel on Americans if their charter and our rights prevent collection of the same? Why is it illegal to consume mushrooms that grow on your own property?
What is legal is not always right (in fact, I would argue it rarely is) and what is illegal is not always wrong. The "popular" opinion has no moral validity to anyone other than those so weak they treat perceived consensus as a survival mechanism.
Yeah, the furthest back I can remember specifically complaining about using one office as a platform to campaign for another with an overlapping turn was Obama's '07-'08 presidential campaign, abdicating his position to represent Illinois in the Senate.

Campaigning for re-election is a necessary evil unless we institute one-and-done laws. Campaigning for a different job isn’t.
So why isn't this a law in most other states, if your opinion is the common one?
What's right and wrong is not a popularity contest.
Okay, then try to make it illegal.
Otherwise get mad, and then get over it.

Okay, so you too have bitched about this stuff before, right? You're not just mad because it's against orange man?

Because shitbag politicians pass laws that benefit themselves.
Okay, so clearly you've complained about this law before right? You're not just bitching because you're a trump cultist?
What does Trump have to do with it? Maybe you’re just bitching because you’re a never-Trumper.
