Former President Donald Trump is closing in on 60 percent of support among likely Republican primary voters in Georgia and towers over the rest field, according to a poll taken after his indictment in Fulton County.

The Atlanta Journal-Constitution poll, conducted by the School of Public & International Affairs (SPIA) at the University of Georgia, finds that 57 percent of likely primary voters support Trump for his third consecutive nomination. He gained six points of support since the SPIA’s April poll when he pinged at 51 percent.

DeSantis 15% (-15)

The survey was taken between August 16 and 23 after Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis’s office secured an indictment against Trump, as well as campaign aides and lawyers, alleging they committed multiple crimes in their challenge of the 2020 election.

The 45th president sits 42 points ahead of his nearest competitor, Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL), who is at 15 percent and has seen his support collapse from when it registered at 30 percent in April’s survey.

No other candidate breaks double digits. Former Vice President Mike Pence takes four percent of the response, followed by entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy, former Gov. Nikki Haley (R-SC), and Sen. Tim Scott (R-SC), who tie at three percent apiece.

From there, two percent support former Gov. Chris Christie (R-NJ), while one percent back Miami Mayor Francis Suarez, who suspended his campaign on Tuesday, and no other candidate garners a percent. Another 14 percent of the respondents are undecided. Of

Not “holds”. We want to know how much he’s GAINED SINCE this idiotic, illegal, and frivolous indictment.

I’m surprised UGA’s SPIA didn’t just bury this poll and say “never mind”.

President Trump’s voter popularity is like the proverbial NAIL....
the more anyone hits it, the deeper grip it gets

It’s always been Trump’s nomination. The only way Trump is not the nominee is if he quits the race.

It’s humorous that the Democrats are throwing everything they can at Trump, but his lead in the polls keeps going up.

Now what effect it all will have on the general election, I don’t know.

IMHO, if Trump runs on his record as president, he’ll get a huge chunk of the undecided vote. People may not like his personality, but there’s no arguing he had a great record as president.

If he runs (in the general election) on “I was cheated in 2020 and I’ve been persecuted by law-fare” he won’t get those swing votes. He’s got to give swing voters reasons to vote FOR him, not reasons to vote AGAINST the Democrats.

‘If he runs (in the general election) on “I was cheated in 2020 and I’ve been persecuted by law-fare” he won’t get those swing votes.’

it’s unlikely he gets swing votes in any case...the electorate of 2016 is dying off, and catching lightning in a bottle twice is almost impossible...

You really don't know how to read a crowd (i.e. US Voters), do you?

Big whoop, they voted for him to stay Governor for 4 years. Not to lie to them so he could have a launch pad for POTUS and a job to come back to when he loses.

He has bad behavior. What a putz.
