Kennedy does well among Republicans, receiving a net positive of +21.

Swift does better among Democrats (+43 net favorable) than among Republicans (-2).

Among independents, Swift (+13) and Kennedy (+9) are the only two in positive territory.

While almost everyone knows the superstar singer and actress, the same cannot be said for some of the political figures and current presidential candidates asked about in the poll, several of whom remain unknown even among their own partisans.

Youngkin is foremost among this group with 51% overall saying they don’t know him and 47% of Republicans saying his name doesn’t ring a bell.

Among GOP primary candidates, Scott (27%), Haley and Ramaswamy (19% each) are the most unfamiliar to Republicans.

Nearly one third of Democrats are unable to rate Newsom.
