Strategists: Fake Missouri Poll Underestimates Trump Support in 2024 Primary
Breitbart ^

Posted on 07/31/2022 4:07:38 PM PDT by SoConPubbie

Several Republican strategists told Breitbart News on Sunday that a Missouri poll commissioned by campaign operatives associated with Attorney General Eric Schmitt’s U.S. Senate campaign deliberately undercounts former President Donald Trump’s support in an effort to boost Schmitt in the final days of the race.

Remington Research Group, a political firm associated with Schmitt’s top consultant Jeff Roe, published a poll showing Trump leading the 2024 presidential primary field at 42 percent. The survey shows Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis at 18 percent, Sen. Josh Hawley (R-MO) at 6 percent, and other candidates combining for 17 percent with 17 percent undecided. It was conducted from July 27 to July 28 by surveying 818 likely voters in Missouri. .

2024 Missouri Republican Primary Poll:

Trump 42%
DeSantis 18%
Hawley 6%
Other 17%
Undecided 17%

While that sounds impressive for Trump—he is leading the potential 2024 field absolutely and even a fake poll cannot hide that fact—several in-the-know strategists told Breitbart News that the poll is obviously fake because it actually undercounts Trump’s support. In reality in Missouri, several GOP strategists told Breitbart News, the former president is much closer to 70 percent or higher in Missouri, and DeSantis is more likely than not in single digits.

“This is a completely fake poll commissioned by the RINO establishment who are looking to move on from President Trump,” a national Republican operative who advises candidates in both Missouri and Florida among other places told Breitbart News. “There is no way Missouri, a deep Trump state, would ever vote for someone like Ron DeSantis. President Trump is dominating the state and every other state in the country.”

On that note, several other polls—including one from Excalibur Strategies—show Greitens in the lead. That poll, which Breitbart News exclusively reported this weekend, shows the field right at these numbers: Greitens 34, Schmitt 30, Hartzler 21, and other candidates 5 percent.

Idea: Since the foul smelling, filthy vermin we call Democrats cheat like this and slander President Trump and us, why not “gently” remind them time and again that they cheated on this poll.

Panel member or offsite GOP should say “Oh, is this another one of your cheating, phony polls like the Missouri one, or are you not lying this time?”

I’m hoping the senate will be full of MAGA. The “cooling saucer” of the senate has been broken and ground to dust by the dems and the moderate republicans (but I repeat myself).

The real estimate should be based on the fact that Trump endorsed candidates so far in this election have a record of about 160-10 the last I heard.

The establishment is DESPERATE to keep President Trump out. They will lie, cheat, and steal as much as they can get away with to discourage people from voting for him once again.
The RINO’s, Dems, MSM, etc...are using Desantis as a strawman foil to try to sow discord within the Republican Base.
And, they are present everywhere.
Including here on FreeRepublic.

If he runs, he’ll win in the primaries.
