A strong majority of former President Donald Trump‘s grassroots supporters – 57 percent – are not concerned about his choice for his running mate in the 2024 presidential election, according to a recent Rasmussen Reports survey.
Rasmussen pollsters offered those surveyed a number of options for Trump’s potential Vice President, including whether they would be more inclined to vote for the 45th President if he chose a female, black, or non-political running mate. No option received more than 15 percent support.
Only 13 percent answered they were more likely to vote for Trump if he selected a female candidate. Eight percent said choosing a black person would make them more likely to support Trump next year. And a further 15 percent argued they were more likely to vote for him if he chose a “non-politician as his vice presidential running mate.” The remaining seven percent answered “not sure.”
The former President himself has toyed with the idea of a female vice president in his next administration, telling an interviewer in September, “I like the concept, but we’re going to pick the best person.”
