The Florida governor once ran even with or even ahead of Trump in some early state polls. Now he’s far behind.
The precise political science term refers to turnout and preference between the two parties. But increasingly over the past few elections, individual primary candidates have skyrocketed in the polls in open races, only to come back down to earth quickly — and never recover. Earlier this year, DeSantis was running even or narrowly in front of former President Donald Trump in some of the national and early-state GOP primary polls. Since then, the Florida governor’s poll numbers have nose-dived, and he’s barely visible in Trump’s rear-view mirror., his peak in national polling came four months ago, in late January, when he nudged above 31 percent on average.
Over the past few Republican primary years, a number of candidates have followed the same pattern, surging to the front of the pack only to wilt under scrutiny: Ben Carson, Herman Cain, Rick Perry, Newt Gingrich.
