I confess I don’t know one political polling company from another, so make what you will a study from Echelon Insights. On a broad poll, they say Trump is ranked at 49% nationally, DeSantis comes in at 16%, and then, surprisingly, or not, Vivek Ramaswamy has climbed up into 3rd place at 10%.
I heard Vivek speak over in Alton several days ago and, as I reported here on the Grok, was very impressed. If some of you missed it, Vivek checked all the boxes we conservatives could ask for. Yes, he’s a newcomer to Big Time politics, but it appears the study above is correct. I’m not the only one impressed. Check him out if you doubt me. If accurate, how could he not find a place in Republican debates unless his numbers tank for some reason?
We all know these studies can be broken down into multiple categories: likely voters, Republican voters, age, sex, and as many other categories as fits the poll’s agenda. Even so, when Ramaswamy speaks, he echos those issues that we conservatives do value, newcomers not. Readers should keep a watch on this candidate even if his numbers fluctuate during the coming months because fresh blood is desperately needed in the Republican Party. He, in my opinion, is a breath of fresh air and a future leader for the Right.
Check him out and see if you don’t agree.
