Asa Hutchinson Launches 2024 Presidential Campaign with Strong Support

Former Arkansas Governor Asa Hutchinson formally launched his 2024 presidential campaign, positioning himself as a "non-Trump" candidate and criticizing the Biden administration's handling of the economy. Hutchinson vowed not to defund the FBI and railed against isolationism. He faces an uphill climb in the primary, which has been dominated by Trump and Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis. A recent poll shows Hutchinson registering at less than 1 percent in support from Republican voters, while Trump led the field with 47 percent support, followed by DeSantis at 33 percent.
