Donald Trump Holds Double-Digit Lead in Recent Surveys, Including Fox News Poll

While Fox News polls have not looked kindly on Trump in the past, the latest survey shows the 2024 contender leading his closest hypothetical challenger, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, by 15 percent, garnering 43 percent to the governor’s 28 percent. No other candidate saw double-digit support, as Nikki Haley — who formally jumped into the presidential ring this month — and former Vice President Mike Pence garnered seven percent support each.

Everyone else listed received two percent support or less.

That same survey asked Trump voters who their second choice would be, and a plurality, 42 percent, chose DeSantis, while 23 percent said Pence and just six percent chose Haley.

Similarly, a plurality of DeSantis supporters, 34 percent, chose Trump as their second choice, followed by 27 percent who chose Haley and ten percent who chose Pence.

The Fox poll was taken February 19-22,2023, among 1,006 registered voters and has a +/- 4.5 percent margin of error.
