A new poll has shown that former President Donald Trump maintains a significant lead over his Republican rivals, beating Florida Governor Ron DeSantis by 30 points and former South Carolina Governor and Trump UN Ambassador Nikki Haley by a whopping 61 points in a full field. These results come despite DeSantis having soft-launched his presidential campaign and Haley officially announcing hers. The Emerson College poll reveals that in the 2024 Republican Primary, Trump holds 55% of the vote, which reflects his standing in the January Emerson poll, as well as the June 2022 Emerson poll. Meanwhile, 25% of Republican primary voters support DeSantis for the GOP nomination, a four-point decrease since last month when he held 29% support. Former Vice President Mike Pence holds 8%, and former UN Ambassador Nikki Haley holds 5%. Both Pence and Haley have increased their support by two percentage points since last month. However, in a field that only includes officially-declared candidates, Trump crushes Haley by an even greater margin of 61 points. On a ballot of exclusively individuals who have announced their candidacy, 79% of respondents would support Donald Trump, 18% Nikki Haley, and 4% Vivek Ramaswamy. Despite a mid-January poll showing DeSantis beating Trump head-to-head while losing in a wider field, recent head-to-head polls reveal that Trump holds double-digit leads over DeSantis. Of those who support DeSantis on the preliminary ballot, 62% support Trump on the declared ballot, and 29% support Haley. Only a few months ago, many analysts were writing political obituaries for Trump in the wake of a chaotic Speaker of the House election and post-midterm soul-searching. However, recent polls show that Trump remains a dominant force in the Republican Party and stands to steamroll the Republican field. (YWN World Headquarters – NYC)
