Donald Trump has torn ahead of his rival in the latest US Presidential 2024 poll - although Florida governor Ron DeSantis remains the bookies' favourite.
Surveys conducted since the beginning of the year show that former president Trump, 76, has overturned what had looked like a healthy poll lead for DeSantis, 44, since November's midterm elections.
While he was not expected to announce that he was a candidate until the summer at the earliest, DeSantis had sat comfortably ahead of Trump in a majority of polls.
