2024 SurveyMonkey Republican Primary Poll: Pence 40, Trump Jr. 29, Haley 26

Pence 2024 would be pretty cool too

No, it wouldn't be. It would be like Biden, but his polling advantage would die off by December.

The Trump children being so high is pissing me off. I thought we would be able to have a serious primary race without any clown cars, but clearly we can't, due to uneducated morons. Maybe I have been overestimating the intelligence level of my own party.

Indeed. Because I made some opposition research on Pence and found out that during his time as Governor of Indiana, he embraced an expansion of Medicaid through Obamacare, imposing more costs on taxpayers and expanding the federal role in healthcare (https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/pence-caves-expands-obamacare) and I think Republicans won't forgive it.

In that same period, then-Governor Pence raised taxes on cigarettes and gas (https://votesmart.org/bill/21160/57184/34024/increases-taxes-and-appropriates-funds-for-infrastructure-projects#.XRErTf5CfIV) while the Republican Party needs be a tax-cut party.

In 2002, during his time in the House of Representatives, Pence voted against Implementing the 9/11 Commission Recommendations Act and also voted against reauthorizing the Patriot Act in 2006 (https://votesmart.org/bill/3298/20666/34024/patriot-act-reauthorization#.XhLxFBtCfIV).

He opposed the Departmental Appropriations for Defense, Security, and Hurricane Recovery Act aimed at the recovery of the states and regions hit by Hurricane Katrina in 2005, while most Republicans in Congress supported it to support citizens impacted by the Hurricane (https://www.bustle.com/p/what-did-mike-pence-do-during-katrina-he-passionately-opposed-more-funding-80283; https://www.govtrack.us/congress/votes/109-2006/h65), which may cost Pence votes in southern states like Louisiana, Mississippi and Alabama.

And more than 20 years ago, while he was running the Mike Pence Show, he made controversial comments about women in the military as he called the Disney movie Mulan liberal propaganda to encourage women service in the military (https://www.businessinsider.com/mike-pence-mulan-liberal-propaganda-2017-7).

That's why I think Pence won't be the nominee.

Exactly this. The only early primary state I see him winning is Iowa at best.

Ben Shapiro, Ted Cruz, and Rand Paul probably should've been included. The age numbers are not that surprising, the young ones were the ones pushing Trump at the beginning and they'll be right with Don Jr. if he runs (Ivanka won't). For me, this really seems like a ceiling for Pence until the voting starts.

Only Cruz.
