“This is CNN, not Fox,” Gillum said during the debate, in a clip in the ad. “You have to bring facts to the conversation.”

Gillum’s dig at Fox News came while the two verbally sparred over crime statistics in the state.

DeSantis accused the Tallahassee Mayor of “presiding over the city that’s out of control in terms of crime.”

“You know, when you have the record number of murders, in fact, the guy running to succeed him as mayor was his former chief of staff and he’s sending out literature to voters saying most murders in history last year,” DeSantis said. “Something needs to change.”

“Thats right — Andrew couldn’t keep Tallahassee safe,” DeSantis continued. “He’s not the guy to keep Florida families safe.”

Gillum fired back by comparing DeSantis to Trump.

“Alright well, Ron is being Don, and that’s Donald Trump, neglecting all sense of reason and facts,” Gillum said. “I preside over a city that is experiencing a five-year low in our crime rate, on trajectory to be at a 20-year low in our crime rate. No matter of restatement of what he has to say is going to change the facts.”

“This is CNN, not Fox. You have to bring facts to the conversation,” he added.

A CNN poll from earlier Monday found that Gillum holds a 12-point lead over DeSantis with just two weeks of campaigning left.
