Guess Who Won CPAC's 2024 Presidential Straw Poll

Source: Mediate

More than half a dozen 2024 hopefuls have spoken to a horde of Republican super-fans gathered at the Hyatt Regency for the annual Conservative Political Action Conference. Star speakers, from Ron DeSantis to Kristi Noem, were met with rapturous receptions.

One major speaker remains: the former president.

He’s set to address the crowd, in his first speech since crashing out of office, moments after CPAC announced him as the winner of its annual straw poll revealing attendees’s preferred candidate for the 2024 presidential election.

If the 2024 primary were held today, Trump would be the preferred nominee of 55% of attendees. Ron DeSantis, hero to lockdown critics, came second to Trump, with 22%. Noem led the rest of the candidates, all with less than 5%.

got a solid 2%. Hitler wannabe, Josh Hawley, got an amazing 1%.

For all their brown-nosing and trying to out-slime each other, the two QOP scumbags both did surprisingly crappy. Neither has that much to work with though.

DeSantis is the likely GOP nominee in 2028, and a strong contender for future dictator of America, if he has his way.

When he was polling 95%++ among ALL gop voters, he is now at 55% among his most die hard fans,'

Gaetz and the other fan boys prevented anyone npt pro trump from speaking. They used an SS uniform emblem for the stage design.

55%?

Don't overlook how absolutely dismal that number is. It was probably lower, but the organizers wouldn't report it honestly if it was.

We are winning.

Sounds like half of them know he has zero chance of winning and will also cost them any chance at Congress. Let them all sink with Trump, the loser of all losers.

except for FL's Governor DeSantis, with names of people who'd "betrayed" Trump and/or refused to attend.

Hang-Pence! got 1%.
