Tim Scott suspended their campaigns in \u200brecent weeks, Trump still\u200c sits at\u2063 58.3%, according to the Real Clear Politics average of\u200c national polling, more than 43 \u200cpoints above\u2063 Florida Governor Ron DeSantis at 14.9%.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Former South Carolina Governor and U.S. ambassador to the UN Nikki Haley comes in at 9.2%, \u2062tech entrepreneur Vivek Ramamswamy sits at 4.8%, and former New Jersey \u200bGovernor Chris Christie is at 2.4%, according to the RCP average as\u2063 of \u200bWednesday afternoon. The RCP average still \u2062factors in Scott\u2019s support at 2.6%, but his numbers will likely \u2063disperse among other \u2064candidates in \u200dthe forthcoming\u200b polls.<\/p>\n<p>According to the latest survey from Quinnipiac taken \u2062between November 9-13, Trump\u200d and DeSantis performed better than their RCP average with the\u200d former \u2063president hitting \u200d64% and DeSantis getting a slight boost from the \u2062previous Quinnipiac poll, up \u200cto 16%. Haley was at \u200d9% in the Quinnipiac poll, Ramaswamy hit 4%, and Christie remained at 2%, all matching their national polling\u2062 averages.<\/p>\n<p>Trump \u2063also led Biden in the Quinnipiac poll 48% to 46% in a two-way race. With independent and Green Party candidates factored \u2062into the survey, Trump\u2019s share \u200dof the vote dropped down to 38% to Biden\u2019s 35%. Independent Robert F. Kennedy Jr. was at 17%, \u2064while independent Cornell West and Green Party candidate Jill Stein tied at 3% each.<\/p>\n<p>A Yahoo News poll conducted over the same time period put Trump at 54%, DeSantis \u2062at 15%, Haley\u200c at 10%, Ramaswamy at 5%, and Christie at 2%. The Yahoo \u200dNews poll was also good news for \u200dTrump in\u2064 a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/latest-presidential-polls-a-dwindling-gop-field-yields-no-major-shifts-so-far\/\" title=\"Latest Presidential Polls: A Dwindling GOP Field Yields No Major Shifts So Far\">projected general election race<\/a>,\u2063 showing him leading Biden 44% to 42% in a head-to-head matchup.<\/p>\n<p>An\u200b Economist\/YouGov poll conducted between November\u2063 11-14 showed the former president leading the\u2063 GOP \u200cfield\u2064 at \u206457%, \u2063while the poll gave DeSantis his best marks in a survey\u200d since \u2063a Monmouth poll\u200b in mid-July with\u2062 the Florida governor coming in at 19%. Haley and Ramaswamy \u2064remained at 9% and\u200c 4% respectively in the Economist\/YouGov poll.<\/p>\n<p>While Trump\u2019s lead in the GOP primary has \u2063been consistent and\u2063 commanding, his recent jump over Biden in numerous general election polls \u201cmystified\u201d Democrats \u2014 some of whom are beginning to sound the alarm on Biden\u2019s re-election chances.<\/p>\n<h3>CHECK\u200b OUT THE\u200b DAILY WIRE BLACK FRIDAY SHOPPING GUIDE<\/h3>\n<p>A New York Times\/Siena poll released earlier this month got the attention of some \u2062Democrats, who expressed worry about how well the former Republican president performed\u200c in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/cnn-host-holding-elections-threatens-our-democracy\/\" title=\"CNN Host: Holding Elections Threatens Our Democracy\">important battleground states<\/a> against Biden. In the poll,\u2062 Trump led Biden in Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, \u200dNevada, and Pennsylvania.<\/p>\n<p> <\/p>\n<h2> What potential factors could\u2064 change the \u200cdynamics of the 2024 Republican primary and challenge Trump&#8217;s dominance in the race for the nomination<\/h2>\n<p><span>  Nnipiac University, Trump also maintains\u200b a strong favorability rating among Republican\u200d voters. The\u200d survey found that 84% of Republicans have a favorable view of Trump, compared to just 9% with\u200d an unfavorable view. This\u2063 suggests that Trump\u2019s base \u2064of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/poll-plurality-of-texas-latinos-oppose-bidens-border-policies\/\" title=\"Poll: Plurality of Texas Latinos Oppose Biden's Border Policies\">support remains solid<\/a>, despite his\u200c time out of office.<\/p>\n<p>In\u200d terms of \u2062policy positions, the Republican candidates have \u200dlargely aligned themselves with Trump\u2019s agenda. DeSantis, for example, has embraced \u200bTrump\u2019s hardline stance on immigration and has been a vocal critic of\u2064 COVID-19 restrictions. Haley, on the other hand, has\u2064 tried to strike\u2062 a balance between \u2064appealing to Trump supporters \u2064and distancing herself \u2062from some of his controversial rhetoric.<\/p>\n<p>One notable absence from the\u2063 current field is former Vice President Mike Pence. \u2063Pence, \u2062who served as Trump\u2019s \u200cloyal deputy during his presidency, had been\u2062 seen \u200das a potential frontrunner in 2024. However, his\u200b decision to suspend his campaign suggests that he may be taking a step back\u200d from politics for the time being.<\/p>\n<p>While Trump\u2019s massive lead in the polls \u200bmay\u2064 seem \u2062insurmountable, it\u2019s worth \u2063noting\u200d that\u2064 the 2024 primary is still a long way off.\u2063 In the unpredictable \u2064world of politics, circumstances can change \u2062rapidly. Just four years \u2063ago, few would have predicted that Trump, a billionaire businessman and reality TV star, would become the\u200b Republican nominee and ultimately \u2064the President of the United States.<\/p>\n<p>There are also other potential contenders who could enter the race and shake up the dynamics. Figures such as Texas Senator\u2063 Ted\u200b Cruz and former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo have been mentioned as possible challengers to Trump\u2019s dominance. Additionally, the outcome of the \u200d2022 midterm elections, which will determine the \u200bcomposition of Congress, could\u2064 have a significant impact on the Republican primary field.<\/p>\n<p>As the 2024 Republican presidential primary continues to\u2062 evolve,\u2064 it\u2019s clear that Trump remains the frontrunner by\u2064 a \u200dwide \u2063margin. His base of\u200d support remains strong, and \u200dhis policy positions continue to shape the party\u2019s \u200dagenda. However, with several other candidates vying for the nomination\u200b and a long road ahead, anything can happen in the\u2064 race for the Republican nomination.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The 2024 Republican presidential primary field is shrinking, but former President Trump\u2019s massive lead and the positions of his GOP challengers remain mostly unchanged.\u00a0 After former Vice President Mike Pence and Sen.
