Who do young Republicans want to win in 2024? Spoiler alert: It's not necessarily Donald Trump.

It's a cliché that young people reject their parents' ideas. But as 2024 approaches, that goes for political candidates too.

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis has found favor with younger Republican voters across the country, even as former President Donald Trump holds a commanding lead in the field of GOP White House hopefuls.

Conservatives in their teens, twenties and thirties told USA TODAY they thought DeSantis was one of two winners of the first GOP debate last month, along with former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley. The Florida governor narrowly beat Trump, 36.6% to 35.4%, in an informal straw poll of about 300 attendees at the National Young Republicans Convention in Dallas, Texas, in August.

“I think for young Republicans, it's very clear who their favorite is,” William Atkins, a freshman at Seton Hall University in New Jersey, said.
