Trump Beats DeSantis in Landslide at CPAC Straw Poll
Donald Trump won the anticipated straw poll of Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) with an overwhelming lead of 62 per cent. This cements Trump’s position as the most preferred candidate for the Republican base in his candidacy for the White House in 2020.
Trump was easily ahead of his nearest competitor, Florida governor. Ron DeSantis won only 20 percent. It was no surprise that Trump was the number one pick in each of the five CPAC straw votes, which are a gauge of presidential preferences.
The Epoch Times was told by Carla Sands, Trump’s ex-ambassador to Denmark, that she had anticipated this result.
“[Trump] was the former president who won more Republican votes than any U.S. president before him,” She said. “It doesn’t surprise me.”
Sands did have positive words to say about Desantis.
“Desantis is fantastic,” She said. “He’s a wonderful governor, but Trump was the best president.”
In Orlando’s CPAC straw vote, Trump got 59 per cent of the votes while DeSantis received only 28 per cent. CPAC is also a popular choice.
