Poll: Just 13% of GOP women back Ron DeSantis for President

The good news? The Governor is over 20% with men.

With less than a month to go until the first GOP Primary debate, another poll is showing Ron DeSantis struggling to rally support from Republican women.

A survey of 262 Republican women conducted by The Economist and YouGov between July 22 and July 25 reveals a dismal 13% of that sample back the Florida Governor in the Republican Primary. That’s the same share as those who are “not sure” who they support.

Former President Donald Trump has 55% support among both women in this survey, with Vivek Ramaswamy’s 5% good for third place.

Interestingly, Trump and Ramaswamy retain their percentage of support among men, 55% and 5%, respectively. Yet DeSantis does much better with male Republicans, scoring 21% support among the 275 GOP men surveyed. The only subgroup DeSantis does better with than men are so-called “urban” Republicans, with whom he has 25% support.

This survey joins a growing list of polls in which women reject DeSantis, whose administration pushed a six-week abortion ban this year, as well as legislation banning permanent alimony in divorce agreements.

Yahoo! News survey conducted between July 13 and July 17 shows just 24% of the U.S. adult women polled approve of DeSantis, with 48% disapproving.

A survey conducted earlier this month by The Economist and YouGov shows DeSantis with 29% approval against 45% disapproval among women overall.

A June Civiqs survey reveals 63% of women disapprove of the Florida Governor, with 60% of female independent voters and 93% of Democratic women against him.

    There is no one to blame but himself for the falling numbers. NO, it is not the media who is outcasting him. It is him doing it to himself. Self-inflicted loser. He keeps saying the exact same line when asked about his decline. The media knows that I will bring down Biden, but they don’t want that. So they are making me look bad. LOL. WAKE UP!!!!!! We are already WOKE. You are asleep.

      I work an online job from home and earn 185 dollars per hour. I never imagined I could do it, but my best friend, who makes $15,000 a month at the job, encouraged me to find out more about it. This has limitless possibilities.

    Poor Ron: It’s not just his message (though woke is sad and tired). It’s his actions. He’s not a fighter – he’s just an entitled bully. Forcing women to give birth is very unpopular – so is targeting and scapegoating minorities, banning books, whitewashing history, using children as props and pawns, and destroying public education.

    Never back down apparently means Ron, the victim.

    Meanwhile, insurance rates are skyrocketing, Florida boasts the highest inflation in the nation – and all Ron can think about is measuring the drapes in the Oval Office and getting his wife on the cover of Vogue. Never gonna happen.
