Gov. Ron DeSantis has been leaning toward replacing Sen. Marco Rubio with state Attorney General Ashley Moody , people say.

Moody is considered the favorite for the Senate in GOP circles.

The move could also pave the way for De Santis' chief of staff to become Florida ’s top law enforcement officer.

Moody and Uthmeier would be a top candidate for Florida attorney general.

Moody was in Tampa with DeSantis and Pam Bondi, whom Trump has tapped to be the U.S. attorney general.

Bondi was Florida ’s attorney general from 2011 to 2019 .

Moody defended another De Santis effort to shield him from testifying in a lawsuit to get his job back.
