• Dwayne Johnson was favoured by nearly 50 percent of voters.
• To run for the future presidentship, as per a poll by PEOPLE.

According to a PEOPLE poll, nearly 50% of Americans wanted Dwayne Johnson, or The Rock, to run for the presidency in the near future.

The actor previously in 2021 was named PEOPLE’s No. 1 Reason to Love America, and he told PEOPLE that it was a “humbling honour” to be seen of as someone people wanted in the White House.

Then, he told PEOPLE, “I love our country to my core and I’m endlessly grateful for the opportunities I’ve had here, as a half-Black, half-Samoan kid being able to work my ass off knowing tenacity opens doors,” he told PEOPLE then. “In a lot of ways, I’m indebted to our great country for it.”

The WWE star recently disclaimed any intention of seeking the presidency, telling CBS Sunday Morning that it was “off the table.”

“I will say this because it requires the B-side to this,” Johnson said. “I love our country and everyone in it. I also love being a daddy.”

He said, that being a father to his three kids Simone Johnson, 21, Jasmine Johnson, 6, and Tiana Johnson, 4 is the most important thing to him, and will always be “No. 1.”
