Does Palin Help or Hurt Trump?
Friday, January 22, 2016
Voters in general don’t think much of Sarah Palin and see her endorsement of Donald Trump as more harmful than helpful to his candidacy. But for Republicans and conservative voters in particular, the intended audience as the Iowa caucus nears, a Palin endorsement is a plus.
The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that 30% of Likely Republican Voters believe Palin’s endorsement of Trump on Tuesday will help the billionaire developer’s bid for the Republican presidential nomination. Twenty-four percent (24%) say her endorsement will hurt Trump instead, while 35% say it will have no impact. (To see survey question wording, click here.)
By comparison, 62% of Democrats sayPresident Obama’s endorsement of one of the presidential candidates would be important to their vote, although that includes just 26% who say it would be Very Important.
The endorsement by the 2008 GOP vice presidential nominee, a longtime darling of conservatives, was intended to blunt Senator Ted Cruz’s surging challenge to front-runner Trump among right-leaning Iowa Republicans. Thirty-three percent (33%) of conservative voters think Palin’s endorsement will help Trump, while just as many (34%) say it will have no impact. Only 22% feel the endorsement will hurt his candidacy.
Among all likely voters, on the other hand, 21% say Palin’s endorsement will help Trump in the GOP race, while 30% believe it will hurt him. Thirty-seven percent (37%) say it will have no impact. Twelve percent (12%) are not sure. But then only 33% have a favorable opinion of the former Alaska governor, including 12% with a Very Favorable one.
Fifty-nine percent (59%) of Republicans, however, hold a favorable view of Palin versus 38% who view her unfavorably. This includes 25% with a Very Favorable view and 15% with a Very Unfavorable one. Her overall favorables are down only slightly from the summer of 2011, but 80% of GOP voters viewed Palin favorably in November 2009.
