“Former President Donald Trump has a commanding 37-point advantage over his nearest
rival, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, in a new New York Times/Siena College national
poll of likely Republican primary voters. No other candidate currently polls higher than
3%. More than three-quarters of Republican voters view Trump favorably and two-thirds
view DeSantis favorably. However, GOP voters overwhelmingly see Trump rather than
DeSantis as a strong leader, able to get things done and as best able to beat President Joe
Biden,” said SCRI’s Director, Don Levy.
Trump Over DeSantis by 37 Points, 54-17% among GOP Primary Voters; No Other Candidate Tops 3%
