In the aftermath of U.S. President Joe Biden’s re-election announcement, the results of our just completed national poll of 1,000 likely voters (+/-3.1% at the 95% confidence interval), show that currently former U.S. President Trump receives his best results for the year to date. The poll was done between April 24 and 28.
Trump remains the front-runner.
As predicted in our March poll, the Joe Biden-Alvin Bragg indictment backfired, and Trump has increased his lead over the Republican field, holding his general election lead over Biden.
Also, the Biden re-election announcement was anemic.
Among potential Democratic presidential challengers in the primary, Biden gets only 25% of the vote. Michelle Obama receives 15%, Kamala Harris 8%, Bernie Sanders 8%, Pete Buttigieg 5%, and all others less.
Biden’s best primary is no primary.
That’s what his campaign is working toward.
The highest percent of Republican primary voters to date this year, 65%, want Trump to run again.
Now that he is running again, among Republican primary voters, they would support him 79% to 18%.
This gives him more room to grow.
In the multicandidate field former-President Trump now receives 52% and Gov. Ron DeSantis, R-Fla., has fallen to 16%.
All other candidates are in single digits.
Since January, Trump’s lead over the field has increased from 12 points to 36 points.
One on one, former-President Trump beats Gov. DeSantis 67% to 26%.
Since January Trump’s lead over DeSantis has increased from 11 points to 41 points.
