Matt Schlapp Thinks CPAC Speakers 'Competition' Is 'Great' Ahead of 2024 Straw Poll

Potential top Republican contenders in the 2024 presidential election will take the stage at the 2022 Conservative Political Action Conference, and chair Matt Schlapp says he welcomes “competition” among the speakers on who can best fire up the crowd.

Former President Trump, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, Texas Sen. Ted Cruz, former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and Florida Sen. Rick Scott are a few of the speakers.

And as is tradition, the conference is set to include a straw poll, which typically asks attendees to assess the president’s performance, share their feelings on administration policies and give predictions for theĀ 2024 election.
