RFK Jr. pulls more votes from Trump than Biden in three-way race: poll
The Hill ^ | 11/02/2023 | Jared Gans

Posted on 11/02/2023 6:46:12 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. appears to pull more support from former President Trump than President Biden in a hypothetical general election matchup, according to a new poll.

A Quinnipiac University poll released Wednesday showed Biden narrowly ahead of Trump by 1 point, 47 percent to 46 percent, within the margin of error, in a head-to-head matchup. But with Kennedy in a three-way race, Biden is ahead with 39 percent to Trump’s 36 percent and Kennedy’s 22 percent.

Pollsters found independents are almost evenly split among the three candidates, with 36 percent supporting Kennedy, 31 percent backing Trump and 30 percent with Biden.

It hardly matters. His presence in the race will primarily provide cover for the Democrats’ cheating mechanisms that will have Biden (or whoever the nominee turns out to be) getting an unreasonable number of votes over Trump. They will “win” again if for no other reason than they have to; not just to hold onto power, but also to stay out of prison, which would be a very real possibility for many of them if an honest DOJ is established by a Republican president. And while the presence of RFJ Jr. in the race will give them a way to explain absurd vote counts and patterns; ultimately, no matter how extensive and obvious the cheating is, they’ll essentially be in a position to say “what are you going to do about it?”, because they’ll still own the DOJ, the media and legions of useful idiots who will support and defend them.

The only way we win is if a significant number of the people who would be active in achieving the fraudulent vote counts (the 2000 mules, for instance) are unhappy enough with life under Biden that they don’t cooperate this time.

Yep!
We ought to be more concerned with month long voting, drop box ballot stuffers, Community organizers, and WHO counts the votes than some asinine poll a year out!

This will wax and wane as people find out more about him.

I agree. And until we learn who the Democrat/Communist Party's nominee is -- and it sure as hell won't be F-JB -- the effect of Junior's campaign on Trump is not determinable as the Democrat/Communist Party's nominee will have a potentially significant effect on this political calculation.

Nope. This poll says something we don’t like so it must be bogus! / s

Hint: most polls are bullschit

BS poll, there is ZERO chance even a single Trump supporter would vote for anyone else. Trumps support is and always has been rock solid in the low to mid 40’s.

I think you underestimate the number of Republican voters who are fed up with all the drama surrounding Trump and wish he would just go away. And they think Biden is a total idiot and would no way vote for him. So RFK Jr is a protest vote.

“No way he’s pulling votes from Trump. What a fantasy.”

Don’t dismiss the anti-vaxers. Some here.

Bet this was not done after he voiced support for reparations. That killed him for me.

Like coming out in favor of KKK/CCP/BLM/Antifa/Hamas/palestine — all the same.

Yep.

I don't think RFK Jr. pulls 22% nationally or in any state, but he definitely takes votes from Trump.

If Ronna McRomney at the RNC has any time between shopping sprees and salon appointments, she should look into getting Cornel West qualified on every state ballot possible.

Wonder how many of the “22%” have actually heard his voice or could pick him out of a line up.

You know they are worried when the obvious disinformation starts.

Nope. In the Army we call that “shaping the battlefield”. It’s a lie but it helps them convince aka scare Trump supporters and people who are considering Trump.

It really makes no sense. Trump has a very loyal and informed following. There is no reason some Trump supporters would switch to rfk.

I don’t think I do. While I am tired of it too, and I know DJT draws a lot of his own fire, the overwhelming majority of the drama is manufactured by the left for the sole purpose of wearing down his base. I won’t fall party to it.

Plus we are talking the Hill and Quinnipiac, they are barely a step above CNN

Assuming there is any validity to their numbers, a move from a 1-point lead to a 3-point lead could be nothing more than statistical noise.

From 2006...

RFK is running a place to stash stolen Trump votes.

Deep States everywhere love those electronic voting machines.
