Donald Trump has been in office for less than six months of his four-year term. That doesn't stop voters from looking to the 2028 election with polls and betting odds showing a mix of candidates for both the Republican and Democratic parties.

Emerson College Polling executive director Spencer Kimball said: "Vice President Vance has solidified himself as the frontrunner in the 2028 nomination contest, backed by 52% of male Republican primary voters and voters over 60.

GOP Vice President JD Vance and Dem ex-Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg are the leading candidates for their parties’ primary nods in the 2028 presidential race, a new poll shows.

The legal battle takes place against the backdrop of the Supreme Court’s landmark 2010 Citizens United v. FEC decision, which struck down limits on independent expenditures by corporations and outside groups, ruling that such restrictions violated the First Amendment’s free speech protections.

President Donald Trump has about three years and six months left in his second term, but one top GOP figure has already opened up a commanding lead in the race to succeed him as the Republican Party standard-bearer.

The case stems from JD Vance's 2022 Senate campaign and aims to overturn a 24-year-old Supreme Court precedent.

Republicans are scrambling to reform Trump's tax and domestic policy package, which could require support from Vice President JD Vance to pass.

In a landmark decision on campaign finance in a case called Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission, the Supreme Court in 2010 enabled corporations and other outside groups to spend unlimited amounts of money on elections, striking down federal limits on independent expenditures as a violation of the First Amendment.

Vance, who doubles as the nation’s second-in-command and the Republican National Committee finance chair, is courting the Massachusetts island’s wealthy summer crowd to bolster Republicans before the midterm elections.

The case, which centers on free speech claims, involves VP Vance, who was a Senate candidate in Ohio when the lawsuit was initiated.
