A Civiqs poll found that Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis' poll numbers have dropped to an all-time low among likely voters. In December he was registering at 46 percent favorability, but as of June, he is now hovering at 34 percent.
Among likely voters from the poll, in December there was a one-point difference between favorable and unfavorable responses, but that gap has grown to 22 in June.
The survey was taken by over 43,000 likely voters in the upcoming 2024 presidential election. Broken down by party, Democrats viewed him with a favorability rating of 3 percent, independents at 33 percent, and Republicans at 73 percent favorability.
Of the other candidates in the pack of several Republican primary nominees, former President Trump is the leader with many others, including DeSantis, running behind the former president as the likely nominee. According to 538, the latest polls calculated give Trump a favorability rating of 55.8 percent and an unfavourability rating of 39.9 percent.
The drop in DeSantis’ favorability comes shortly after his announced run, entering the race in May.
Despite the recent polls, DeSantis has said that he will “beat Biden handily in the swing states” compared to what Trump will be able to do in a general election.
After an NBC poll pointed out his drop in polls just a few days ago, DeSantis told NBC that, “at the end of the day, you know, this is a marathon, not a sprint.” He later said that the team is “doing everything we need to do in these early states” and has confidence going into the primary.
Earlier today, Trump posted an article on his Truth Social account that shows his favorability ratings have increased since his indictment, according to polls. The writeup claimed the increase in ratings is a “cry for justice” from the American people in response to the ongoing investigation.
Trump and DeSantis aside, candidates in the race for the Republican nomination are not even receiving 10 percent support, according to current poll averages from FiveThirtyEight.

Only 56?
He made a very big strategic error when he decided to go for it. After he won big for Governor he should have settled in and continued to build his foundation. He was sitting perfect for 28. The base loved him and Trump would not have turned his guns on him. To make matters worse he cozied up to the GOPe and waffled on Ukraine. Ego can destroy you if you let it.
The Bland Meatball fans here hope Trump gets convicted thinking DeGlobalist
will “Inherit” his MAGA voters. That’s what they are hoping for.
They’re stuck in a hannity and colmes world
>>>56% of Freepers view SoConPubbie’s posts as unfavorable.>>>
or worse.....LOL
Please show my entire quote:
We know the Dems are out to destroy Trump because he is the one who can defeat them (if there were a fair election and fair vote count, and I guess if all kids get to have a pony and teenage girls can have a singing career to match Taylor Swift’s).

On the uneven playing field where the Left runs a crooked game and owns the referees and the reporting on the game, we are fighting an unfair battle no matter which candidate we have.
Congressional elections are not presidential ones. We’ve only had 45 different people hold the office. His 2022 victory was a pat on the back for his job as governor during covid. Not all popular governors can translate that into being a president. Brian Kemp of Georgia had a very easy victory in his rematch with almost VP Stacy Abrams but no one, including Kemp, saw a path to the White House.

That’s what I was thinking......got to be higher...much higher.
Florida’s demographics ren’t nationwide.
Real easy to get stuff done when your party controls all aspects of government and are willing to utilize it, unlike the congress R’s
The fact RDS was in congress throws red alarms for me.
I don’t want anyone who was ever in congress to seek higher office. Congress is the problem, ultimately.
DeSantis Online Influencers pattern and practice, deflect and attack the messenger.
I like DeSantis but prefer Donald as Prez. DeSantis should have waited until 2028.
More than 56% of Americans cannot IDENTIFY RDS. Many of these polls are all BS push polls.
Wow. First time that I have been called one of those newfangled "Influencers". Thanks! Do I get bonus points or anything?
No, he has to get out there now, strategically. Not to mention that the GOP needs a bullpen, when one considers the vagaries of life.
You RDSers need to quit using that. The majority of people think the 2020 election was fraudulent.
I think the 2022 election in Florida was too. Like that?
I don’t know anyone in the panhandle that has been polled on DeSantis’ favorability. While this is still Trump country, we love the job our governor is doing for Florida.
I’m having a slow day. 80:20 what?
Thanks.
so why is trump and the only trumpers so worried about him?
I honestly am not sure who hates Desantis the most: Many freepers here or Democratic underground members on that sordid site.
Boggles my mind really.
I see DeSantis is trying to get the Disney suit against him put on hold until after the 2024 election. I don’t understand why. He’s still Governor, and set himself up to remain Governor while running for President by getting the State Legislature to reverse the “Resign to Run” law, just like rino Charle Crist did when he thought McCain would pick him as a running mate. Rick Scott changed it back. DeSantis signed the revised law the day he announced his run. He’s nothing but a self-serving prig.
