A new poll finds Democratic Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Republican Sen. Marco Rubio leading a field of possible 2028 presidential candidates among party voters. The Atlas National Poll surveys Democratic and Republican voters on who they would support in their party’s 2028 primaries, amid growing discussion about eventual successors to Donald Trump on the Republican ticket. According to the report, Ocasio-Cortez comes out ahead among Democratic respondents, while Rubio is the top choice among Republican respondents. The Hill adds that 26% of Democratic voters indicated they would support Ocasio-Cortez in the Democratic primary field presented in the survey. The articles present the findings as part of ongoing speculation about which prominent elected officials could become front-runners heading into 2028. The poll reflects voter preferences for a hypothetical primary matchup rather than any formal nomination or campaign decision.
