Poll: Trump Holds 27-Point Lead Over DeSantis in Iowa

Former President Donald Trump holds a 27-point lead over Florida Governor Ron DeSantis in the latest National Research Inc. survey of likely GOP voters in Iowa. This poll of 500 likely Iowa Republican Caucus participants represents Trump’s largest lead over DeSantis since the Republican polling firm began its surveys in May.

A full thirteen percent of likely Iowa voters are still undecided according to the poll. With nine percent, Senator Tim Scott of South Carolina is within striking distance of DeSantis for second place.

 

 

DeSantis’s numbers have steadily dropped since May, going from 26 percent, to 24 percent, to 21 percent, to currently 15 percent. Even voters who are favorable toward the governor say they prefer Trump, 40 percent to 23 percent. Among voters who give both Trump and DeSantis a favorable rating, Trump leads 54 percent to 17 percent.

 

The poll results also indicate that television ads critical of Trump ads are hurting, rather than helping DeSantis.

According to the survey, almost one-in-five (18 percent) of likely Iowa GOP Caucus participants have seen a television ad critical of Trump. Among those voters, Trump leads the field with 45 percent, followed by Senator Tim Scott (9 percent), former Governor Chris Christie (8 percent), Vivek Ramaswamy (6 percent), and then Governor DeSantis (6 percent).

Iowa voters also see Trump as the best candidate to improve the economy (57 percent to 15 percent)and oppose far-left progressives (43 percent to 26 percent).

Iowa likely voters also believe Trump cares more than DeSantis about their needs (41 percent to 17 percent), and has the best chance of beating Joe Biden (38 percent to 29 percent).

This survey was commissioned by American Greatness and conducted on July 23-24, 2023. The margin of error for the survey is +/- 4.38 percent at the 95 percent confidence interval.

  1. Time for Ron to throw in the towel and endorse President Trump.

  2. Hey Trumpty Dumptys…look how your 4-D chess playing, swamp fighting, super loyal cult icon spent his last day in office:

    I’m sure he had spent the couple of weeks he had after January 6th putting as much thought into how he might help the people who went to protest the theft of the election, at his behest, as he did to the important work of handing medals to Milley, Fauci, Birx, Kushner, et. al…some of whom really made the theft much easier while working on his very own task force.

    You cultists can pretend your guy is a swamp fighter, or shrewd, or somehow loyal to you all you want. When the final exam came on March 13, 2020 he failed miserably…and kept on failing through this very auspicious last day in office…until this very day while he tells himself he saved “hundred of millions of lives” with his clot shot.

  3. It doesn’t matter. Es macht nichts!

  4. “It doesn’t matter” was just what the Branch Davidians said right before their cult hero got them all killed.

  5. Oh man, you nailed it,Task. That’s exactly Trump’s most unattractive character flaw - his one way loyalty street. Sure keeps him from being just a lovable old cuss. Hard to imagine anyone ever trusting him. It’s unlikely many J6ers still do.
