More than four in ten likely Republican primary voters in South Carolina, the second GOP primary state in the nation, want former President Donald Trump to be their party’s 2024 nominee, while three other candidates take double-digit support, according to a poll.
The National Public Affairs poll released Wednesday shows that 41 percent of the 809 respondents back Trump for the GOP nomination. He sits 23 points above his nearest competitor, Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL), at 18 percent, who finds a pair of opponents within striking distance.

For reference, a May survey from the pollster showed Trump at 38 percent and DeSantis at 23 percent, marking an eight-point swing Trump’s way in a month’s time. Moreover, that poll was conducted before DeSantis’s campaign launch.

Trump also leads the field by double digits among independents with 28 percent support. Haley has the second most with 16 percent, followed by DeSantis (13 percent), Scott (12 percent), and Christie (11 percent).
Trump won all of the state’s delegates in 2016 with just 32.5 percent of the vote, beating out his nearest competitors, Sens. Marco Rubio (R-FL) and Ted Cruz (R-TX), who had 22.5 percent and 22.3 percent of the vote, respectively.

Guess you overjoyed that Hailey is now in 3rd place?
One thing consistent in all the polls you post.
Trump leads them all.
The whiners are defensive. On edge.
Oh please “Yes” to chatty Niki being left behind, even by RINOS, dropped on her head.
They’re all of them running for their NeverTrump donor$.
It pays very well to betray your mentor and stay bought, against the One who alone has already proven himself and has continued to earn his re-instatement. imo. :)
Exactly.
Some are angry because, Haley and Scott are going after the same donors,
Globalist and and Anti-Trump voters that DeGlobalist is going after.
Hence, the frustration from them here.

Bit, the point Trump makes bad choices some times. Are you so sure he wouldn’t pick Hailey?
See post 8.
“Any bets when he throws in the towel??”
His donors may insist that he run Third Party as the “true conservative”.
We are not even close to a point of seeing VP’s picked.
I stand by my comment to Rita and you.
Always think 2 steps ahead.
Haley- Scott is the story in SC just as FL which has 4 candidates.
If Scott and Haley were not in the race, their voters would go to DeGlobalist.
Trump is not concerned about these 2 flies on the wall.
But they are, and they are angling for VP. Trump has one more term, that’s it.
SC is the land of rhinos.
Mike Pence was NOT a Presidential Candidate in 2015.
He was still Governor of Indiana.
Yet, Trump picked him as VP.
You are spreading Rumors with no basis that Trump
would pick Haley or Scott.
More likely DeGlobalist would pick one or the other.
Christie ahead of Pence....HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
