PANews reported on March 29th that, according to Jinshi News, a preliminary poll showed that US Vice President Vance was the top choice for the Republican presidential nominee at this year's Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC). Of the more than 1,600 attendees who participated, approximately 53% chose Vance, with Secretary of State Rubio coming in second with 35% of the vote. The CPAC is an important annual gathering of Republican lawmakers, activists, and presidential candidates. This year's CPAC was held in Grapwayne, Texas, and attendees were primarily from the Republican conservative camp. While the conference's annual preliminary poll is not a reliable predictor of the final candidate, this vote reflects the current support inclinations of core supporters of Trump's "Make America Great Again (MAGA)" campaign.
