Fewer than one in five Republican voters want Ronna McDaniel to be Republican National Committee (RNC) chair again, according to a new Rasmussen Reports poll, and of the three candidates — McDaniel, attorney Harmeet Dhillon, and MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell — Lindell surpassed Dhillon by a 10-point margin. Republican voters want radical change in their party, and this poll shows that they want an outsider with a track record of defying the establishment to enact that change.
Rasmussen found in its survey of Republican voters that 30% support Mike Lindell for RNC chair, 20% support Harmeet Dhillon, and only 15% support Ronna McDaniel. There is definitely indecision among Republicans too, though, because 15% don’t support any of the three candidates and 21% are undecided. Perhaps that’s due to not paying attention to the race or perhaps to Republicans’ lack of confidence in their own party, which was likely heightened by the failed “red wave” of 2022. Rasmussen said only 20% of all likely U.S. voters think the Republican Party has been “more effective” in the past few years, while 40% say the Democrats were more effective. Only 43% of Republican voters think their party was more effective in electing candidates.
But that does not translate into support for another term for RNC chair, as only 15% want McDaniel to be chair again. Interestingly, when polling all likely voters, including Democrats and independents, Rasmussen said 19% want Dhillon to be RNC chair, while 18% want Lindell, and 12% support McDaniel. Among self-described conservative Republicans, 52% do not want McDaniel to be reelected, while Dhillon and Lindell get 26% each of those voters’ support. One message is very clear—Republicans don’t want McDaniel.
So why was Lindell more popular among Republicans overall? Does Lindell simply have more name recognition?

His “net worth” as I alluded to, is in excess of 175 million. Lindell’s big problem is he don’t fit in with the Republiclub insiders and the establishment party over principle hacks.
He’s a business man not a creepy lawyer!
Yes Lindell is a good businessman. But us RNC head a business job or PR & political job?
C’mon...He’s been doing all that for a long time now.
I agree. There’s no constitutional mechanism to reverse a dirty election after a fraudulent president has already been sworn in. We don’t need somebody promulgating these crazy hypotheticals as head of the RNC.
“Isn’t there a $1.3 billion dollar lawsuit pending against Lindell?”
I heard Alex Jones offered to pick up the tab for that.
Yep. And he does not seem to be in a hurry to get to Court to present
his “Data Packet” evidence.
I like Mike and I know that he would wage war against fraud and cancel culture.
Big money donors own the RNC. The RNC is run by RINOs.
I refuse to send them a dime. I do support the GOP on state level.
I’d vote for Mike and would not vote for Ronna.
Have you read his book?
There is only one person fit to become the RNC Chair...and that person is Ms. Harmeet Dhillon...period!!! Ronna Mc Daniel has got to go..period!!! She blew the 2022 mid-term election for the GOP!!!
Ronna Romney needs to go. I’d prefer Harmeet Dhillon but I’d also welcome Mike Lindell. Just get the RINOs out.
