A new poll found Donald Trump would beat incumbent President Biden into the White House if the race took place now.
New results from a Harvard-Harris poll released Friday show Trump would beat Biden by five percentage points in a head-to-head.
The new findings also show that Vivek Ramaswamy is hot on the heels of Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, who is up eight points in the polls and just two points behind DeSantis.
According to the polls, Trump would also beat Vice President Kamala Harris by an even bigger margin of seven percent if she ran in the race.
Even the former president, despite the rise of Ramaswamy, still has a clear lead over victory in the Republican presidential primary.

Their poll, which polled 2,068 registered voters, also showed that there was widespread dissatisfaction with candidates from both major parties across the country, with 70 percent looking for another option.
The majority of respondents also agreed that President Biden was not mentally fit to continue serving as President.
59 percent of people agreed they had doubts about his suitability for office, with a majority of 85 percent being Republican voters.
There was also broad agreement in the polls that Biden was showing he was too old to be president: more than two-thirds (68 percent) agreed he was too old.
Should the Republican Party primary fall between DeSantis and Trump, polls suggest the former president would win in a landslide victory with 63 percent of the vote.
Aside from the main political frontrunners in the upcoming election, the poll also asked individuals about their preference for political figures.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. was the frontrunner in this poll, receiving a 47 percent positive rating and a 26 percent negative rating.
Second on the list was Donald Trump, who achieved a positive rating of 45 percent but a higher negative rating of 49 percent.

A series of high-profile slips have raised new doubts about Biden’s suitability for the post
This comes after polls released earlier this month by Echelon Insights found that 48 percent of swing-state voters would support Trump in next year’s election.
Pollsters who polled 1,020 voters for the study said only 41 percent would support Biden over the former president.
But in a direct nationwide direct poll, Echelon found Biden narrowly ahead of Trump at 45 to 44 percent.
The Echelon Insights poll found that 60 percent of likely Democratic voters said they would “definitely” or “likely” support Biden in a Democratic presidential primary.
Another 33 percent said they would choose to support another Democratic candidate, and 7 percent said they weren’t sure.
The Echelon Insights poll was conducted between June 26 and June 29 among 1,020 likely voters, with a margin of error of +/- 3.9 percentage points.
Of all the country’s political figures, Robert F. Kennedy, who is running as the Democratic presidential nominee, was viewed as the most positive in the poll
The president won the 2020 election after swapping the key swing states of Michigan, Wisconsin, Arizona, Pennsylvania and Georgia.
Last month, a poll suggested swing state Pennsylvania had turned its back on Trump.
With 20 votes in the electoral college and a tendency to vacillate between elections, Pennsylvania is one of the states crucial in deciding who wins the presidency.
After Pennsylvania voted for Trump in 2016, it went blue for Biden in 2020.
The Quinnipiac poll found that 47 percent of Pennsylvania voters would vote for the former president, while 46 percent would support the current commander in chief.
