Former President Donald Trump and Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis both hold leads over President Joe Biden in hypothetical election matchups, according to Rasmussen Reports.
Former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley, though, trails Biden by two percentage points in another hypothetical 2024 presidential matchup, a new Rasmussen Reports survey found.
In a Trump vs. Biden scenario, the current GOP primary front-runner receives 49% support of likely voters and the president gets 41%. Another 8% say they would vote for another candidate, and 2% are undecided.
Trump's advantage largely is due to his 26-point margin (54%-28%) among independent voters. The former president also receives 79% support among Republican voters, and Biden gets 77% backing from Democrats.
