Exclusive – 2024 National GOP Primary Poll: Donald Trump Holds Commanding Lead
Breitbart ^ | 17 Oct 2022 | MATTHEW BOYLE

Former President Donald Trump holds a commanding lead over the rest of a potential 2024 GOP primary field, a poll from Cygnal provided exclusively to Breitbart News ahead of its public release shows.

The national survey, conducted October 10-12 with a margin of error of 2.82 percent, polled 1,204 likely 2024 GOP primary voters nationally. It found Trump leading the possible field with a near-majority at 45 percent. The next closest competitor was Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, who trailed Trump by nearly 20 percent and came in down at 26 percent.

After that, former Vice President Mike Pence comes in at 9 percent and former United Nations Ambassador Nikki Haley comes in at 3 percent. Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY) comes in at 3 percent as well, but her favorability rating is by far the worst of any Republican in the survey with 60 percent of Republicans viewing her unfavorably, including 45 percent who view her very unfavorably.

From there, Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) comes in at 2 percent. Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan and Texas Gov. Greg Abbott both come in at 0.9 percent, Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) at 0.8 percent, former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo at 0.7 percent, former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie and Sens. Rick Scott (R-FL) and Tim Scott (R-SC) all at 0.4 percent, and South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem and Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp both at 0.3 percent. Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin, New Hampshire Gov. Chris Sununu, Rep. Dan Crenshaw (R-TX), and Sen. Josh Hawley (R-MO) all get 0.2 percent, and Sen. Tom Cotton (R-AR) gets 0.1 percent. Arkansas Gov. Asa Hutchinson gets 0.0 percent, and 6 percent are unsure.

“I like Donald Trump, mainly because he has done for our country,” a third added. “I also love that he is not afraid to stand up for what he believes.”

Other quotes were similar. The two highest “emotions” respondents said they felt with regard to Trump were “joy” and “trust,” with him earning 37.4 percent and 34.2 percent respectively on those.

Tom Cotton’s favorability number should be higher.
In my opinion, Cotton inspires confidence, strength and clarity of message. We don’t really know him yet.
Meanwhile, whose going to tell Paul Ryan about Donald Trump’s
favorability rating?

I like Tom Cotton but was disappointed in his initial reaction to January 6.

After this continued recession moves into 2023 and worsens, people will be begging for Trump.

Cotton’s an unreliable squish. No thanks.

Sounds like a wipe out for anyone that wants to challengeTrump, or Desantis if Trump doesn’t run,

It’s Trump for me, but I like DeSantis very much.

I would love to see him follow Trump in 2028 & 2032.

Twelve years of solid leadership would be pretty nice to
see after this four year debacle.

I have an unfavorable opinion of every 95 % Repuke Senators and 95% of the Govenors. I’m probably just not thinking it fully through. If it’s not Trump I won’t be watching because it may just as well be Biden.

Liz Cheney at 3%? Obviously some Democrats punked the poll.

“Exclusive – 2024 National GOP Primary Poll: Donald Trump Holds Commanding Lead”

that’s not possible: Paul Ryan personally guaranteed that Donald Trump wouldn’t be the GOP candidate in 2024 ...

Pretty hilarious that Goldman Sachs shill Ted Cruz gets less support than Liz Cheney, who has no prayer of ever becoming the Republican nominee.
