Ron DeSantis Overtakes Trump in Poll
« on: August 31, 2023, 09:41:27 pm »
Uh oh --- Trump will come absolutely unhinged when he sees this.  Perhaps this will throw him over the edge and prompt him to attend the next debate.  :whistle:

Ron DeSantis Overtakes Trump in Poll

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis defeated former President Donald Trump in a straw poll conducted at the 2023 Young Republican National Convention earlier this month, a sign that the two candidates may have a tough battle to win over the GOP's younger set in their quest for the 2024 presidential nomination.

The Young Republican National Federation (YRNF) hosted its annual convention in Dallas, Texas, from August 16 to August 20. The organization focuses on registered Republicans ages 18 to 40, to "provide them with better political knowledge and understanding of the issues of the day," according to its website.

After the five-day convention—which included speeches from Texas Governor Greg Abbott, Florida Congresswoman Kat Cammack and former Arizona gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake—36.6 percent of the attendees indicated that they wanted to see DeSantis as the next Republican presidential candidate. Trump trailed with 35.4 percent of the vote.

The other GOP candidates polling in the top five were businessman Vivek Ramaswamy (9.1 percent), former South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley (7.5 percent) and South Carolina Senator Tim Scott (5.5 percent). Roughly 6 percent of participants indicated that they wanted someone else as the next nominee, according to poll results..............

These polls are all over the place and polls out this far ahead of the primary season are not reflective of what ultimately will happen

The only polls that count are the ones that have Trump way ahead.

That the obvious, but this is the first poll that I have seen that actually shows DeSantis ahead.

McLaughlin Poll: Trump Beats DeSantis with 72 Percent of GOP Vote
29 August 2023
John McLaughlin and Jim McLaughlin

Donald Trump not only is decisively defeating Joe Biden for President, he remains the overwhelming favorite to be the Republican nominee.

In fact, he is crushing his GOP competition.

Among Republican primary voters, Donald Trump leads the field of 13 candidates with a 51% majority.

Vivek Ramaswamy has moved into second with 13%; DeSantis has collapsed to 9%; Pence 4%, Scott 4%, Christie 4%, Haley 3%, all others received less.

Gov. Ron DeSantis, R-Fla., had long been viewed as Trump’s primary competitor. But the data shows he offers no real competition today.

One on one between Trump and Desantis what was once a 52% to 41% back in January, is now a 72% to 28% blowout for Trump over DeSantis. That’s a forty-four point lead.

Our poll was completed after the announcement of the Fulton County indictment of President Trump and right before the Republican debate.

This national poll of 1,000 likely voters (+/-3.1% at the 95% confidence interval), was completed between August 15th and 23rd.

That was bound to happen as it was the first poll that I've seen showing DeSantis ahead. Though I do believe it is likely that Trump has seen the poll and is not exactly thrilled.
