Yes. The source URL’s December 16, 2023 article attributes this wording to Nick DiCeglie in a press release; in that article, your text appears verbatim as the opening portion of a longer sentence that continues with “that appears more realistic than ever.” WLRN independently reports the same attributed sentence.

Checked: (1) Year 2023 is correct — DiCeglie filed the bill (SB 850) in December 2023. (2) Relevancy: on-topic for statement 408 about criminalizing deepfakes/malicious AI in electoral campaigns. (3) Author attribution: confirmed — Nick DiCeglie, Florida State Senator (Pinellas County). Web search confirmed the quote appears on the FlaglerLive source page attributed to him; full statement: "The increasing access to sophisticated AI-generated content threatens the integrity of elections by facilitating the dissemination of misleading or completely fabricated information that appears more realistic than ever." The stored quote is a faithful truncation (drops the trailing "that appears more realistic than ever"). (4) Vote alignment: voted "for"; he authored legislation against AI deepfakes in political ads, so "for" is correct. (5) Source: flaglerlive.com returned HTTP 403 to WebFetch, but web search surfaced this exact page and confirmed the quote verbatim there.
