DeSantis’s popularity declines in key swing state NH: Poll
Gov. Ron DeSantis Trails Behind Trump in New Hampshire Primary Poll
According to a recent New Hampshire primary poll, Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL) is facing single-digit polling numbers, placing him 30 points behind former President Donald Trump, the current GOP front-runner.
In the survey of 500 likely New Hampshire Republican Primary voters commissioned by American Greatness and conducted by National Research Inc., Trump emerged as the overwhelming favorite with 41% support. DeSantis, on the other hand, garnered only 11% of the support, marking a decline from his previous 18% in May.
Other Contenders in the Race
Former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie and Sen. Tim Scott (R-SC) trailed behind DeSantis, both tied at 8%. Vivek Ramaswamy, who has been gaining momentum in recent polls, secured 6% of the support. Gov. Doug Burgum (R-ND) received 5%, while former U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley held 3% support.
When it comes to the candidate voters believe has the best chance of defeating Joe Biden, Trump maintains a significant lead with 37%, while DeSantis lags behind at 14%.
Republican candidates have been actively campaigning in New Hampshire, as it is required by state law to hold the first primary. Despite the Democratic National Committee’s decision to give South Carolina the first spot in the primary calendar, New Hampshire leaders from both parties have vowed that the Granite State will retain its status as the first presidential primary in 2024.
DeSantis will have an opportunity to engage with New Hampshire voters this Sunday as he headlines the “No B.S. BBQ Series” event in Rye, hosted by former Ambassador and onetime Massachusetts GOP Sen. Scott Brown.
