Most Republicans believe former President Donald Trump is the “strongest candidate” for the party in 2024, the latest survey from the Economist/YouGov found.
The survey, taken July 8-11, 2023, asked respondents, “Do you think that Donald Trump is the strongest candidate that Republicans could nominate for president in 2024?”
Most Republicans, 55 percent, expressed the belief that Trump is, indeed, the strongest candidate the GOP could nominate for president in the upcoming presidential election. Another 30 percent said he is not, and 15 percent remained unsure.
Notably, the results from this week’s survey represent a one-point increase from the 54 percent of Republicans who said, “Yes,” Trump is the strongest candidate, in May.
