NEW YORK — Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis will take time out from debating fellow Republicans in two months to take on a Democrat, California Gov. Gavin Newsom. 

Fox News said Monday that the two politicians will appear in a 90-minute debate on Nov. 30 in Georgia. 

Sean Hannity will be the moderator, and it is airing on Fox News Channel in Hannity’s 9 p.m. Eastern time slot. 

DeSantis is scheduled to appear in the second debate of Republican candidates for the 2024 presidential nomination this week at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library in California.
