Trump verdict makes significant number of Republicans less likely to support him: poll
Fox News
One in 10 Republican voters say in a new poll that they are less likely to vote for former President Trump in November because of his criminal conviction in New York.
The poll also found that a majority of Republican voters, 56%, said the outcome of the case would have no effect on their vote and 35% said they were even more likely to support Trump, who maintains his innocence.

Even so, the potential loss of a tenth of Republican voters could decimate the presumptive GOP nominee's chances to win back key battleground states President Biden claimed in his 2020 victory over Trump. That year, just 44,000 votes in Georgia, Arizona and Wisconsin separated Biden and Trump from a tie in the Electoral College, according to NPR.
