Can a dehumidifier reduce air conditioning costs?

I live in a very humid climate and have been thinking about buying a 65 pint dehumidifier. I normally keep the a/c thermostat on during the summers at 78.

      In my opinion, yes it would. Because the humidity is what makes you feel sticky, hot, sweaty, and gross. If you have ever been to a drier climate, you notice that the high temps are more tolerable. For example, I went to las vegas nevada and noticed that it was very tolerable at low 90’s… While at home in PA, 90’s is very untolerable due to humidity, sticky, sweaty, muggy, and makes you feel like you need a shower. You just cant get comfortable.
