ORLANDO — Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal is helping Florida Republicans focused on trying to get Gov. Rick Scott re-elected.

Jindal is scheduled to be the keynote speaker at the Republican Party of Florida's annual fundraising dinner being held Saturday at Walt Disney World.

Jindal is another potential 2016 presidential candidate helping Scott in his bid to win a second term. New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie campaigned with Scott on Friday.

The party's "Victory Dinner" is the last big event for the party prior to the final push for the November election.

Both Scott and Democratic rival Charlie Crist have already spent tens of millions on television advertising in the increasingly bitter contest.

Crist is scheduled to campaign in central Florida on Saturday as well.
