<p style="font-weight: 400;">In the crucial early states of Iowa and New Hampshire, a new survey found that while former President Trump holds a solid lead in both states among Republican voters, a vast majority of those voters are not committed to supporting him.</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">In Iowa, where the presidential caucuses start the primary process, a new CBS News/YouGov <a style="font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit;" href="https://www.cbsnews.com/news/trump-2024-poll-gop-primary-iowa-new-hampshire/">survey</a> conducted between September 15-24 found only 20% of voters saying that they were committed to voting for Trump, while 48% are considering both Trump and other candidates, and 31% declared they will not vote for Trump.</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">Though a majority of respondents said they were potentially open to a candidate other than Trump, the poll also found that the former president currently holds a solid lead in the state (51%). The poll found that Florida Governor Ron DeSantis (21%) is running second, while former UN Ambassador Nikki Haley (8%) is running third.</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">In New Hampshire, 23% of voters said that they are committed to Trump, while 43% are considering both Trump and other candidates, and 31% declared they will not vote for Trump. As in Iowa, Trump leads the race (50%), while DeSantis (13%) is running second, and Haley (11%) is running third.</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">The poll also found 62% of Republicans in Iowa and 53% of GOP voters in New Hampshire said the GOP presidential debates were a “major factor” in their decision as to which candidate to back.</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">“Voters considering choices other than Trump say they are doing so to keep their options open,” CBS News reported. “They also show concern about Trump&#8217;s controversies and legal fights, and think the party should consider someone new.”</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">Polls show Trump with a commanding lead over his rivals, but history shows that 13 months before the presidential election may well be too early to draw a definitive conclusion of who the ultimate candidate will be.  At the end of September 2007, the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nationwide_opinion_polling_for_the_2008_Republican_Party_presidential_primaries">leaders in the GOP polling</a> were Rudy Giuliani and Mitt Romney; John McCain ultimately won the nomination.</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">At the end of September 2011, Mitt Romney (the ultimate nominee) was leading, but one week later the leader was Herman Cain; they battled for the lead for a week before Newt Gingrich sprang into the lead, which he kept until late December 2011. By February 2012 Rick Santorum gained the lead; it wasn’t until late February 2012 that Romney was in the lead to <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nationwide_opinion_polling_for_the_2012_Republican_Party_presidential_primaries">stay.</a></p>
