Two-thirds of GOP voters support Trump running for president in 2024: survey

Sixty-six percent of Republican voters support President Trump running for president again in 2024, according to a new survey.

The poll from Seven Letter Insight asked what voters would support or oppose Trump doing after the 2020 election wraps up. While two-thirds of Republican respondents said they would support another presidential bid in 2024, 41 percent of independent voters and 26 percent of Democrats said the same.

The survey is Seven Letter Insight’s first-ever nationwide voter priorities poll and included 1,500 respondents fielded from Nov. 10 through Nov. 19.

Sixty-seven percent of Republicans also said they would support Trump peacefully transitioning power to the Biden administration. Eighty percent of independents shared that sentiment, as did 85 percent of Democrats.

Among other questions in the survey, 52 percent of Republicans said they would support Trump endorsing one of his children for a presidential bid in 2024, 86 percent said they would support Trump calling for national unity, 38 percent said they would support Trump refusing to give up power and remaining in the White House, and 46 percent said they would support Trump starting his own TV network.

More than 50 percent of GOP voters also said they would support Trump contesting the election in the Supreme Court, stopping using Twitter to discuss politics and helping guide the Republican Party.

Less than half of GOP voters said they were supportive of Trump leaving American politics and receding into private life and leaving the country as he stated he’d do if he lost the election while on the campaign trail.

The margin of error for the survey is 2.5 percentage points.
