Ron DeSantis is in free fall in New Hampshire’s Republican primary, with support for the Florida Governor tumbling from 29 percent in March to just 19 percent in June. Support for his leading rival, Donald Trump, has risen from 42 percent to 47 percent. The Floridian has had a bad week in the Granite State, with his team recently branded “just stupid” for picking a fight with its leading conservative women’s group.
The data comes from a Saint Anselm College Survey Center poll based on surveys of 1,065 New Hampshire registered voters between June 21st and 23rd, 2023, with a margin of error of three percent.
DeSantis has been trying to up his campaigning in New Hampshire, which will be one of the first states to declare its pick for the Republican presidential nomination. But he is losing rather than gaining ground on frontrunner Donald Trump, despite the former president’s legal woes, and recently blundered into a spat with the New Hampshire Federation of Republican Women after scheduling an event on the same day as their annual fundraising luncheon – which Trump will headline.
In addition to DeSantis’s 10-point drop, the Saint Anselm survey threw up other interesting findings. For example, an overwhelming 70 percent of voters are concerned about Biden’s age (80), while only 34 percent are concerned about Trump’s age (77). It also found that 88 percent of registered Republicans think the investigations into Trump are politically motivated.
Both men appeared in the state today, with Trump focusing his message on finishing the job he started, while DeSantis focused his fire on Trump, claiming he didn’t do a good enough job in his first four years in office, despite DeSantis previously admitting he would need eight years to do the same task.
Better Luck Next Time!
I think we will see a jump up in the polls numbers for Doug.
Trump, DeSantis, and some of the others are at the Moms for Liberty Joyful Warriors National Summit in Philadelphia today.

This story is written as if the writer is out of breath excited. Typical obscure blog crap.
Not saying it’s not true. Just that it was written by an incel.
The attempt by the globalist/Uniparty/globalist/NeverTrump folks to pump this guy up to take out Trump is failing miserably.
Desantis will not only lose spectacularly during the primaries, but he is going to damage his brand long term while trying to win.
They thought that this time, (THIS TIME!) they finally had the correct recipe for the downfall of their nemesis.
LOL.
The more voters see and hear from DeGlobalist, the less they like him..
maybe desantis needs to convince the kochs and the rest of the sea island billionaires to pony up a few hundred million more bucks ...
But his backers need to pull in their claws. Their aggressive never Trump deepstate warmongering rah rah the Ukie lanudromat is going to ruin him. We need a good experienced conservative.
Exactly. The other thing that is disheartening is that it shows that DeSantis is not a strategic genius. Timing is everything and this is not his time. And he doesn’t have a clear vision of the long view of where we are going as a country and his role in it.
Depends on where in NH they polled.
If it were south of Manchester, this wouldn’t surprise me.
