That singular candidate has not been announced, but they can expect to benefit from the $70 million the network has collected to use for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/joe-biden-democrat-political-losses-result-of-a-whole-lot-of-confusion-for-americans\/\" title=\"Joe Biden: Democrat Political Losses Result of 'A Whole Lot of Confusion' for Americans\">political races<\/a> next cycle.<\/p>\n<h3>Reshaping the Republican Candidate Pool<\/h3>\n<p>With the entire support of the network behind them, the chosen candidate is likely to reshape the Republican candidate pool dramatically. Currently, Trump is the front-runner in most polls, with Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL) either leading, tying, or slightly trailing the former president, as surveys vary.<\/p>\n<p>Americans for Prosperity said part of the strategy will also look at bringing more <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/fetterman-voted-to-put-murderers-back-on-streets\/\" title=\"Fetterman Voted to Put Murderers Back on Streets\">general election voters<\/a> into the GOP primary process to alter the outcome of early contests.

Two ads, called &#8220;The Choice&#8221; and &#8220;Unelectable,&#8221; have been released and will air in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/huge-sidney-powell-witness-whom-ny-times-described-as-always-the-smartest-person-in-the-room-concludes-hundreds-of-thousands-of-votes-transferred-from-trump-to-biden-in-all-battleground-states\/\" title=\"HUGE!
