Take heart, MAGA Peeps: He won the presidential straw poll at the Western Conservative Summit.
Just one day after hiswas unsealed and three days before he was due in a Florida courtroom, former president Donald Trump managed to win the annual Western Conservative Summit presidential straw poll — beating out every Republican rival planning a run in 2024, including Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, who'd defeated Trump in the same poll two years in a row.
Out of 21 people in that poll, DeSantis proved to be the most popular, with 66.9 percent of the approval votes. Trump received 63.4 percent, and Elder brought in 44.9 percent. Democrat Robert F. Kennedy Jr. snagged 14.4 percent of the vote, while President Joe Biden wasn't able to bring in more than 1 percent.
“It’s a two-horse race for the Republican nomination for president,” says Jeff Hunt, co-chair of the Western Conservative Summit. “The results are clear: Western grassroots conservatives want a fighter who will take on the radical left and the institutions that are destroying America’s founding principles.”
Boebert has been a staunch supporter of Trump on social media, with many of her recent tweets fixated on his indictment.
