Oct 30 (so before "stop the steal")
1200 registered voters in total (Republicans are a subsample of this)

...asked respondents what they would prefer Trump do should he suffer defeat. Across all those asked, the most popular choice was for him to "leave politics entirely," with 48 percent suggesting this.


However, among Republicans:

Stay in politics and run for president in 2024: 38%
Leave politics but back new leaders who share his political views: 34%
Leave politics entirely: 9%

When you add the 9% of Republicans who want him to leave politics entirely and the 34% who don’t want him to run again, that would add up to 43% of Republicans who prefer another candidate over Donald Trump.

Yeah, "plurality" is a pretty meaningless word in this context. You could also have a poll that says:

Support Trump: 45%
Support Biden, and like orange juice: 28%
Support Biden, and don't like orange juice: 24%

Headline: Plurality of Americans support Trump!!!
