Thanks for writing about this issue! RE: DeSantis voters--I am seeing some folks in these groups dismayed that they have been "lied" to about his environmental stance so I do think it will end up swaying some voters in the upcoming election with other individuals, though of course not affecting him because he's on his second term. And this state park issue is driving folks I know who have been working on other conservation efforts to start trying to piggyback off of some of this momentum, such as the Split Oak Forest conservation easement issue (for a toll road), the LDS land annexation that will grow Orlando development by 60%, and the Free the Ocklawaha River movement. Could be big if things stay moving.

Thanks for bringing it to my attention! I've been tracking the land annexation issue, too, at your behest -- I'll certainly be keeping my eyes on Florida to see what comes.
