Vice President JD Vance has once again emerged victorious in the influential Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) straw poll, securing his second consecutive win. However, the margin of Vance's victory has narrowed compared to last year, as Senator Marco Rubio continues to gain traction among the MAGA faithful.
