• Former President Donald Trump once again won the CPAC straw poll 
  • Sixty-two percent of attendees surveyed said they want him to be the 2024 GOP nominee, compared to 20 percent who said Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis 
  • Additionally, Kari Lake was voted the attendees favorite vice presidential pick 

Former President Donald Trump once again dominated the straw poll at the annual Conservative Political Action Conference, with 62 percent of attendees surveyed saying they want him as the 2024 GOP nominee.

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, who skipped the annual confab that returned this year to suburban D.C., again came in second with 20 percent support.

Trump improved on his performance from last February’s CPAC, where he received 55 percent support, while DeSantis’ support remained stable. He got 21 percent last year when the conference was held in his home state of Florida.

Former Arizona gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake, was voted the top pick to be Trump’s vice president.

Twenty percent of respondents chose Lake for VP, followed by 14 percent who said DeSantis and 10 percent who said former U.N. Amb. Nikki Haley, who announced she would challenge Trump for the GOP nomination last month.
