Donald Trump Holds Double-Digit Lead in AZ's Republican Race

The survey listed declared candidates, including former President Trump as well as former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley. It also included Sen. Tim Scott (R-SC), who is expected to make a presidential announcement this month, as well as Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, former Vice President Mike Pence, Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL), former Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY), Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin, former Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan, New Hampshire Gov. Chris Sununu, and former Secretary Mike Pompeo. Notably, Pompeo announced last month that he will not run for president this election cycle.

No other potential challenger came close. As is consistent with other national and statewide surveys, DeSantis came in a distant second, 28 points behind with 21 percent support. Pence came in third place with seven percent support, followed by Haley and Cheney, both of whom garnered four percent support. Three percent chose Rubio, and the remaining individuals listed saw one percent support or less.
