Former President Donald Trump holds a double-digit lead among declared candidates and other potential challengers in the New Hampshire Republican primary field, according to a National Research Inc. poll.
The poll, which the Center for American Greatness commissioned, found that 39 percent of likely primary voters in the Granite State support Trump in his bid for the nomination. He sits 19 points ahead of his closest potential competitor, Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL), at 20 percent.
Interestingly, Gov. Chris Sununu (R-NH) is hot on DeSantis’s trail, with 17 percent of support. DeSantis has comfortably held the second-place position in virtually every national poll and many state polls, though his support has been sliding for months. Sununu told reporters on Wednesday, “He is ‘shockingly surprised’ at how easy it would be for him to raise money if he chooses to run for president,” as InDepth New Hampshire’s Paula Tracy reported.
Entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy, who has made a strong presence in New Hampshire since launching his campaign in February, performs second best among declared candidates with six percent of support. Another three percent of respondents back Former Gov. Nikki Haley (R-SC), while former Gov. Asa Hutchinson (R-AR), former Vice President Mike Pence, and Sen. Tim Scott (r-SC) each hold one percent of support.
Moreover, the poll asked voters who they prefer regarding three “perceptual attributes” about “the economy, the battle against far-left progressive ideology, and compassion.” More than half of respondents, 54 percent, say Trump is best poised to handle the economy, while 13 percent believe DeSantis is.

Similarly, 40 percent of respondents identify Trump as the “[s]strongest” candidate to take on the radical left, versus 21 percent who say DeSantis. Finally, when asked to choose which candidate “Cares About Needs and Concerns of People Like Me,” 34 percent selected Trump, more than double the 17 percent who said DeSantis.
Trump and millions his supporters were ripped off by these people who’ve hijacked the government. Trump is the only one who rightfully deserves to take that office back.
RdS does not care. He is counting on his Uniparty allies to take Trump out. Otherwise, RdS would not be wasting his time or those Uniparty $$$.
“Trump AG Bill Barr tells @CBS_Herridge he thinks special counsel Jack Smith could arrive at charging decisions in the Trump Mar-a-Lago docs + January 6 probes soon. “It could be later in the summer or in the fall would be the earliest I would expect it.”

Trump leads as the GOP candidate in every poll that has been taken thus far. And he leads by large margins. One thing I’ve noticed, is that since Kennedy received 19% (or maybe it was 20) in the poll versus Biden, that there are no more polls with that question having been asked. I think with Biden low approval rating, they are worried about Kennedy gaining traction.
Take at look at RCP recent polling:

No pollster has done a poll regarding Kennedy vs Biden in ten days. A Pennsylvania poll was released that showed Kennedy beating even DeSantis. However, they didn’t release any poll on Kennedy vs Trump. I can’t believe they would do a poll without asking that question. Of course, pollsters want to form your opinion rather than get your opinion.
Sounds right. Trump cares and DeSantis is a robotic lawyer politician anointed by the establishment GOP.
Who gives a damn about a party, or a state for that matter, that would elect a Sununu?
NH has long been a RINO bastion, and if the Sununu/DeSantis vote were united, it would probably beat Trump. This may be the only state where the dynamic is at least this close.
Bobby Kennedy III is married to a supposedly “former” CIA agent (wrote an officially sanctioned book on it) with a series on the Obamas’ beloved Netflix.
Added to RFKJ’s fierce defense/partnership on Deep State Malone and his adherence to climate change dogma, and we’ve likely got a controlled oppo candidate in RFKJ. Who knows the options/endgame?
This is great insight, thank you for posting. Ted K was the strongest proponent of Obma and they remain close. Ted K had a falling out w the slick Clints, its why they have limited power and Hilry never got her turn.
My sense is that the current Kennedys have taken the “American royalty” thing all too seriously and have sided with the Euro-royal globalist types above all.
They have been big on ambassadorships for years, and Bobby III, who is on his dad’s campaign, married a quasi-Brit/Euro CIA operative.
