New poll complicates Vance’s status as Trump’s likely 2028 heir apparent

A new University of New Hampshire poll shows Secretary of State Marco Rubio gaining ground on Vice President JD Vance in a hypothetical 2028 GOP nomination race, with Rubio at 26% and Vance at 36% support. This marks a significant shift from a February poll where Vance led 53% to 7%. Trump has praised both candidates, calling a potential Vance-Rubio ticket 'unstoppable'.
