Marjorie Taylor Greene Holds Big Lead for Re-Election [View all]

An internal poll provided to the Washington Examiner shows Rep. Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) with “an enormous lead in her 2022 midterm election primary” and “53% would back her regardless of who challenges.”

Greene holds a stunning 68% to 10% favorable rating, according to the poll.

Every day I get an email from someone saying they're going to beat MTG. I won't give them a penny. I'm under no illusions that she isn't actually popular in her district (R+28) and a shoe-in to win next year.
