In February, Scott began traveling to the state’s 67 counties to meet with Floridians ahead of his re-election campaign for the Senate in 2024.

During the tour, Scott will meet with voters in every Florida county “about how he can continue to fight for them in Washington,” according to a statement issued by the campaign.
