00:00 According to the first New York Times and CNN poll for the 2024 presidential campaign,
00:06 former President Donald Trump is dominating his rivals for the Republican presidential
00:10 nomination, leading his nearest challenger, Governor Ron DeSantis of Florida, by a landslide
00:16 37 percentage points nationally among the likely Republican primary electorates.
00:21 Trump has decisive advantages across almost every demographic group, region and in every
00:26 ideological wing of the party.
00:28 As per this survey, he is led by wide margins among men and women, younger and older voters,
00:34 moderates and conservatives, those who went to college and those who did not, and in cities,
00:39 suburbs and rural areas.
00:42 The poll shows that some of his contenders, Ron DeSantis' central campaign arguments
00:47 that he is more electable than Trump and that he would govern more effectively have so far
00:52 failed to break through.
00:54 Some Republicans motivated by the type of issues that have fueled DeSantis' rise, such
00:58 as fighting radical woke ideology, favored the former president.
01:02 Overall, Trump led DeSantis 54 percent to 17 percent.
01:07 No other candidate topped 3 percent support in the poll.
01:11 Below those lopsided top-line figures are also other ominous signs for DeSantis.
01:16 He performed his weakest among some of the Republican Party's biggest and most influential
01:20 constituencies.
01:21 He earned only 9 percent support among voters at least 65 years old and 13 percent of those
01:27 without a college degree.
01:29 Republicans who described themselves as very conservative have favored Trump by a 50-point
01:34 margin, 65 percent to 15 percent.
01:38 Still, no other serious Trump challenger has emerged besides DeSantis.
01:42 Former Vice President Mike Pence, the former United Nations Ambassador Nikki Haley and
01:47 Senator Tim Scott of South Carolina each scored 3 percent support.
01:52 Chris Christie, the former New Jersey governor, and Vivek Ramaswamy, an entrepreneur, each
01:57 received support from just 2 percent of those polled.
02:01 The survey comes less than six months before the first 2024 primary contest and before
02:06 even a single debate.
02:07 In an era of American politics defined by its volatility, Trump's legal troubles, his
02:12 trials threatened to overlap with the primary season, pose an especially unpredictable wildcard.
02:18 Both Donald Trump and Ron DeSantis maintained strong overall favorable ratings from Republicans
02:23 76 percent and 66 percent.
02:26 If the poll results are to be extrapolated, then Donald Trump would have been the GOP's
02:31 presidential nominee for 2024 had the nomination's results been out today.
02:35 The polls are expected to be conducted by the end of the year.
