It’s been another good week in 2024 polling for Ron DeSantis.

A new poll of likely Iowa Caucus–goers by Neighborhood Research found support for DeSantis skyrocketing compared to this time last year. Thirty-two percent of respondents listed DeSantis as their first choice, while 30 percent chose Trump. For context, Trump enjoyed a 21-point lead over DeSantis in June and a whopping 44-point lead last November in polls conducted by the same firm.
