Ron DeSantis Names Brad Harold as Campaign Manager for Senate Bid

On Sunday, as he continues his bid for the U.S. Senate, U.S. Rep. Ron DeSantis, R-Fla., named Brad Harold his campaign manager. 

Harold is an old hand in Florida politics, having been the executive director of the Republican Party of Florida (RPOF) and U.S. Sen. Marco Rubio’s, R-Fla., deputy state director among other positions. In 2014, Harold managed Mike McFadden’s bid against U.S. Sen. Al Franken, D-Minn.

"Casey and I are excited to have Brad on our team. Brad is an experienced manager and strategist who has a strong work ethic and deep Florida roots," DeSantis said on Sunday. "We're building a grassroots network of thousands of Floridians who want to keep Americans safe from threats at home and abroad, shakeup the status quo in Washington, and rescue the country from its current malaise. Our campaign will continue to grow in the coming months and build on our momentum to 2016."
