56% of US voters view DeSantis as 'unfavorable': poll
The Post Millennial ^ | Jun 28, 2023 | Thomas Stevenson

Posted on 06/29/2023 10:53:43 AM PDT by SoConPubbie

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.

The official count was about 74 million plus. Biden officially got 82 million. But I think Trump got at least 80 million, and god only knows how many Biden really gotif you count only legal votes.

BTW I am a huge Trump supporter who was at the J6 rally, and who was paid a visit by the FBI for my troubles. Checking your posts on this thread it appears you are too. I hope all is OK between us. I wasn’t trying to start an argument.

This fact escapes many Trump loyalists on FR, he could also be a convicted felon based on classified documents case in Florida, not mention other indictments he might be facing in Georgia and Washington DC

If DeSantis sucks so bad, why the need for so many articles about how bad he sucks?

He is the opposition. Who are his big donors? What does he owe them? Why have they said they are supporting him? Do you think they throw millions at him cluelessly. His associations & his wife’s are Globalist.

I am so embarrassed that some vocal Freepers are swallowing him hook line and sinker. He has done some showy things like with Disney but he has done them poorly, and they are backfiring. He is costing Floridians millions in legal bills that would not have been necessary had he not wanted a splash for political credentials.

It is disgraceful for a public official to target people or corporations for political views. You may like it because you dislike their views but this America and it is a crime for an official to target because of the exercise of free speech.

Fact. Balderdash. There is no crime in what he did.
This is targeted harassment just like to fake Russia Russia & impeachment. Anyone who bothers fact checking knows this is a non crime. Each one of these indictments is a crime by the DOJ and the attorneys involved. I hope they do time.

What you said is very true, the charges are crap, the reality is Trump has been charged even if the charges are crap, if he’s guilty he will be facing jail time or home confinement, that is also a fact.

A lot of Trump supporters don’t want to face up to reality, Trump is in serious danger of being convicted of crimes that will likely result in jail time. At this point, the validity of the charges are not important.

“...he won two statewide elections in Florida, not bad for someone who is terrible.”

A politician can be terrible and still win elections. We as a nation would not be on the verge of extinction if it were not so.

“I forgot to mention he got himself elected to the US congress multiple times before he was Governor.”

He has something in common with adam schiff.

Notice his stance on the most important issue that is facing the nation — immigration. He cut and pasted Trump’s efforts. I can understand that, because you really can’t go beyond what Trump has put forth. So why not stick with the original.

‘Donald Trump given to us by God.’

well, according to most religions, every single person who has ever lived was ‘given by God...or gods...’

so what makes Donald Trump the ‘one and only...’?

‘Look at why not one person has stated as they did endlessly for the 2016 that Biden won the popular vote. He didn’t. Not by a very long shot...’

well, since he didn’t run in 2016, it is to be expected that he didn’t win the popular vote...

“What does that make Trump who lost to a guy who never left his basement?”

What makes you think, believe in your heart, that the guy who never left his basement and could not get 50 people to show up at an event when he had one, actually got over 81 millon votes? I noticed that Tucker Carlson is derisive over that figure. It takes an idiot to believe that Biden got over 81 million votes.

“Was Kari Lake and Herschel Walker, Dr. Oz and many other MAGA candidates who last terrible candidates ??”

Kari Lake was not and the election was stolen from her also. Have no clue about the others. I just know that the ones who beat them, if the election was not corrupt, are terrible. Beyond terrible. Have you noticed Fetterman?

Absolutely cheating was involved in the 2020 election, what was Trump’s plan to deal with all the cheating ?

Absolutely nothing except complain about it.

What was Kari Lake’s plan to deal with the cheating, she had 2 years to see what happened to Trump in Arizona.

Lake’s plan was vote on election day, except the machines didn’t work on election day...her plan was an EPIC FAIL.

Lake’s other brilliance was to tell McCain voters at her rallies to get the hell out, as is she was in a strong enough position to tell potential voters to get the hell out, simply brilliant on her part.

DeSantis went from a less than 1% win in Florida to nearly a 20% win in 4 years, Florida counted 7.5 million voters and reported the votes by midnight with no complaints by either side.

Yet somehow DeSantis is terrible one.
