The survey obtained by The Hill was conducted by Tony Fabrizio, who participated in the former president’s 2020 campaign.
In the poll, Trump gets the favorable ratings of 81 percent of voters registered as Republicans or affiliated as Republicans, while 88 percent said they approve of the task that Trump did as president.
In a potential G24 by-election in 2024, Trump gets the support of 51 percent of GOP voters. No other potential candidate breaks double digits in the survey.

The result of the recording of the primary race in 2024 was announced last week.
The survey is the latest poll showing that Trump remains popular below the GOP grassroots level, even after his national approval rating dropped after the January 6 riot on Capitol Hill.
However, the survey of Fabrizio did find division within the IDP and divided it into five groups: ‘Diehard Trumpers’, who says that the former president should lead the party and ‘definitely’ vote for him in a by-election; ‘Trump Boosters’, of which a small majority would support Trump in a by-election; “Post-Trump GOP” voters, who have a strong opinion about the work Trump has done, but believe he should not run in 2024; Republicans who never agree with Trump should not lead the party; and “Infowars GOP” voters, who boast unanimous support for Trump and believe conspiracy theories such as QAnon.
The poll shows the former president in a potential 2024 primary election gets the support of zero percent of the so-called post-Trump Republicans and never Trumpers. He gets 55 percent support among those labeled ‘Trump Boosters’, 100 percent support among ‘diehard’ Trump supporters and 80 percent support among ‘Infowars’ Republicans.
According to the survey, Diehard Trumpers and Trump Boosters make up 27 percent and 28 percent of the party. Republicans after Trump make up 20 percent, followed by Never Trumpers with 15 percent and Infowars Republicans with 10 percent.
“President Trump still has a tremendous influence on the party,” Fabrizio wrote in the survey, “yet it is not universal or homogeneous.”
Fabrizio’s poll polled 1,264 IDP voters from February 20 to March 2 and has a margin of error of 2.76 percent.
