But in first-primary state New Hampshire, Trump sits in the campaign driver's seat, with nearly half of Granite State GOP primary voters saying the former president is their first pick for the 2024 presidential nomination.
Nikki Haley, who served as Trump's ambassador to the United Nations, came in second with 19% support – the highest level she has attained in New Hampshire primary polls.
The survey found that voters were not very willing to shift to other candidates at this point, months before the yet-unscheduled New Hampshire primary.
But the Suffolk poll indicates that Trump's legal woes have not deterred his base.
"Add in second-choice votes from all the other major candidates – even if they all endorsed Haley – and Trump sits above 55%," Paleologos said.
