DeSantis CLOSES gap with Trump in Iowa by 14%: New poll shows Florida Governor has almost HALVED ex-President's lead in crucial primary state - INTERNAL NEVEREBACKDOWN POLL

Internal polling from backers of Ron DeSantis show the Florida governor gaining ground against primary competitor Donald Trump in the first-in-the-nation primary contest state of Iowa.

A new Never Back Down PAC survey shared with Axios has DeSantis closing the gap between frontrunner Trump by 14 percent since his presidential announcement.

But when the other candidates were taken out of the equation and DeSantis and Trump were put in a head-to-head matchup, the pro-DeSantis PAC found the two frontrunners are effectively tied in Iowa – compared to the governor's 14-point deficit in mid-May.

A new CNN survey conducted the day of DeSantis' announcement showed Trump up 56 percent to DeSantis' 26 percent.

Despite the optimistic showing from the main PAC backing DeSantis' GOP primary bid, other polling shows that he has not earned the expected post-announcement boost.

A Morning Consult poll taken after DeSantis entered the race shows his standing only increasing by 1 percent – and still trailing Trump by 38 percent.

Rasmussen also shows Trump up by a 28 point margin.
GOP Voters Favor Trump Over DeSantis Nearly 2-to-1

So, internal polling leaked to axios - just as deceitful as desantis

Also, from Rasmussen

Vs. November, Ron DeSantis favorability is down huge with Republicans.

Overall down 8 points.

Very Favorable down 22 points

He has only gained among Democrats since then.

and

We called it.

Groups who gave @GovRonDeSantis incrementally higher support vs Trump have largely abandoned him post-announcement.

I conducted my own ‘internal poll’ of my family, and it shows Trump up by 100 points, to DeSanti’s 0.

My poll is more correct with no margin of errors

Yawn... I think he needs to Run in case they kill Trump... if they don’t kill Trump it will be Trump... I pray for Trump. Please pray for his safety as well.
On another note, I was told Ron was a member of Skull and Bones and has close ties to the Bush family...

Anyone got the goods on that rumor?

It’s a long time until the primaries. Plenty of time to make it close.

Although I’m getting a hard one, Trump STILL gets my vote, based on what he did accomplish (despite being hated by, literally, EVERYONE in DC) and what he’s going through.

So, sorry Ron, you’re young - should have waited a bit (but, yes, I know, they wouldn’t permit that).

So DeSantis supporters, since this internal poll is favorable to DeSantis, are polls this far out now reliable?
