According to a recent YouGov poll taken in the aftermath of Donald Trump’s “Guilty” verdict, 50% of Republicans are more likely to vote for him now than before the verdict.
From Axios:
The big picture: A YouGov poll conducted in the wake of the verdict found that 27% of voters said the conviction made them less likely to vote for Trump, while 26% said they were more likely to vote for him and 39% said the verdict “makes no difference” in how they’ll vote.
The results were even more stark along partisan lines, with 50% of Republicans saying they’re more likely to vote for Trump. Meanwhile, 44% of Democrats said they’re now even less likely to vote for him.
An ABC News/Ipsos poll released earlier this month found that 80% of Trump supporters said they would continue to support him even if he was convicted. Another 16% said they’d reconsider their support, but only 4% said they’d no longer support him.
“Go Trump” was trending on X on Friday.
