CPAC 2024 Highlights Race for Trump's Running Mate Amid GOP Unity

As potential contenders vie for the vice presidential spot, Donald Trump's influence within the GOP is reinforced, despite challenges of low attendance at CPAC.

The Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) 2024 spotlighted the race for Donald Trump's running mate, with potential contenders showcasing their loyalty and policy priorities to the MAGA base.
Trump's dominance in the GOP primary race is underscored by his significant lead over Nikki Haley, his only remaining major rival, particularly after a decisive win in South Carolina.
CPAC attendees and speakers, including prominent Republicans and former presidential candidates, expressed strong support for Trump, highlighting his influence within the party.
The CPAC straw poll for Trump's running mate showed a tie between South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem and entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy, indicating no clear frontrunner among the potential candidates.
Despite the enthusiasm for Trump and the vice presidential race, CPAC 2024 faced challenges with low attendance, suggesting a possible alienation within the conservative movement due to its focus on Trump.
