More Republicans and GOP-leaning independents say they would prefer Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis to run for president in 2024 over former President Donald Trump, according to a new poll.
While 35% of Republicans and Republican-leaners want Trump to run in 2024, 42% said they wanted DeSantis to run, according to a Yahoo News/YouGov poll released Saturday. Even among those classified as "strong Republicans," Trump is two points ahead of DeSantis for 2024 at 45% to 43%.
Voters who "lean toward the Republican party" overwhelmingly favor DeSantis over Trump at 45% for DeSantis and 21% for Trump, the poll shows.
The survey also showed that a plurality of Democrats was surprised by how many seats their party won in the midterm elections as 32% of Democrats said they won more seats than expected.
The poll was conducted from Nov. 9-11, with 1,500 adult U.S. citizens and the margin of error is 3%.
While the survey was being conducted, Trump attacked DeSantis in a series of posts on Truth Social, calling him "Ron DeSanctimonious" and an "AVERAGE Governor," among other things.
2022 not even finished and people are talking about 2024
Nothing new in the poll. MAGA for Trump. Linguine spined moderates for DeSantis
Jim had it right.....Let the two fight it out and may the better man win.
Hopefully this will bring the factions together.
Yahoo News/YouGov poll
Yeah, sounds totally legit!
Good thing we cleaned up the "elections"...
More trickery designed to divide conservatives.
Wait till Trump releases the dirt he has on Ron.
Letting them fight it out sounds good except that it looks like a seventh grade cafeteria food fight to the outside world. What is especially bad is DJT making threats to release sorid information about DeSantis.
Old saying I heard, “don’t ever argue with an idot other people may not know who the idiot is”.

Bunch of Brits that named their company YouGovAmerica. LOL
Sad to see John Solomon’s outfit getting in this kill Trump game
Isn’t yougov a voluntary online poll??
Yay Ron. 2 more years.... 2 more years!
Screw supporting the party. The party doesn’t support me or you.
Total Crock
I know of no one who is wavering
DeSantis 2028
Good news. the two of them fighting will block out the usual crowd of RINO’s that obfuscate the conservative message during the campaign.
DeSantis gains ground with conservatives over for 2024 nominee: poll; "strong Republicans" favor Trump, voters who "lean toward the Republican party" overwhelmingly favor DeSantis"Voters who "lean toward the Republican party" (AKA never-Trumpers) are not Conservatives. Most are simply RINO's.
Then once DeSantis gets too popular the DemoMarxist party will harass the F out of him with endless investigations, slander, harassment while the RINO party hides.
No matter how this plays out that is a terrible idea
Almost sounds like something the DNC would wish for
All these trolls keep showing up, having rarely posted in the past and now their opinion is important?
