As Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis postures for a possible presidential campaign, delegates to the California Republican Party convention this weekend remained unquestionably in support of former President Trump in 2024.
Take the grassroots straw poll that Orange County delegate Evelyn Nunez Jones and Los Angeles County delegate Rudy Melendez were organizing at the convention by handing out business cards with a QR code link to an online survey. Early results, with about 150 participants, showed Trump running away with three-quarters of the vote, they said, ahead of a field including DeSantis, former United Nations Ambassador Nikki Haley and former Congress Member Liz Cheney .
Among those shopping was Napa County Republican Party chair Doris Gentry, sporting a Trump lanyard for her convention credential and a sparkling American flag brooch. She remained loyal to the former president, she said, because “we know what he did, so we know what he will do.” “We’re not going to have four years to find his footing,” Matsen said. “He learns from his mistakes. So where house didn’t get cleaned before, he’s going to clean house right away.”
Rizk said he has been making a strategic case to his fellow Republicans: that DeSantis would do better among independent voters, while nominating Trump again would only alienate them and hurt down-ballot GOP candidates in 2024. It did not seem to be resonating at the convention.
