Donald Trump led all potential competitors for the Republican presidential nomination in a recent poll released by Premise Data, as the 45th president mounts his 2024 election bid.
In the poll, Trump had a whopping 57 percent of voter support. Governor Ron DeSantis (R-FL) followed considerably behind with less than half Trump’s backing (28 percent). Former Vice President Mike Pence has five percent of the vote, while all other competitors had less than 4 percent backing.
The poll also shows Donald Trump dominating President Joe Biden. Trump is leading in a hypothetical matchup between himself and Biden by two percentage points — 43 percent to 41 percent.
This is one of many polls that shows Trump dominating in hypothetical primary matchups. The DC Enquirer recently reported on two such polls. A recent poll by Trafalgar concerning the 2024 South Carolina Primary shows Trump winning by a “landslide with 43.4 percent. Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL) came in a far second 15.6 points behind with a minor 27.8 percent.”
Similarly, the DC Enquirer reports the that President Trump is winning in, “the Republican primary poll in New Hampshire conducted by the New Hampshire Journal. Trump won with 37 percent. Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis came in second place with 30 percent, 7 points behind Trump.”
Recent polling of the general election has also been favorable to Donald Trump. As the DC Enquirer reports, “while the majority of Republicans want 45th President Donald Trump to be the Republican nominee, only 36 percent of Democrats want President Joe Biden to be the Democrat nominee, according to a new Washington Post-ABC News poll. A whopping 62 percent of Democrat voters are opposed to Biden being the Democrat nominee, while only 36 percent favor a Biden second term.”
