Nikki Haley Surges To Number 2 In Poll Pushing Aside DeSantis
India-West News Desk
CONCORD, NH – Nikki Haley‘s momentum appears to be gaining genuine traction. According to a recent poll of likely Republican primary voters in New Hampshire, the former South Carolina governor is now running ahead of Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, securing 19 percent support compared to DeSantis’s 10 percent.
However, both candidates still lag significantly behind the frontrunner, Donald Trump, who maintains a commanding lead with 49 percent support in the survey. The Suffolk University/Boston Globe/USA TODAY survey, conducted with 500 likely GOP primary voters after the second debate, carries a margin of error of plus or minus 4.4 percentage points.
This poll underscores Haley’s rising popularity and DeSantis’ decline in the GOP primary race. Haley has seen an uptick in her standing in the polls following the initial debates and is also attracting greater interest from donors. These developments come just ahead of a surge of GOP candidates visiting New Hampshire next week.
DeSantis’ decline in New Hampshire, especially considering his previous lead over Trump in a January poll, has opened up a competitive race for the second position in the crucial first-in-the-nation primary state. This dynamic could invigorate Republicans who have reservations about Trump’s candidacy, and Nikki Haley is emerging as the frontrunner among those vying for second place, leveraging her strong debate performances to capture the spotlight.
Former New Jersey Governor Chris Christie garnered 6 percent support, while entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy and South Carolina Senator Tim Scott each received around 4 percent. Former Vice President Mike Pence and North Dakota Governor Doug Burgum trailed far behind with just 1 percent support each.

According to today’s RCP average number from realclearpolitics.com, in New Hampshire, Trump is at 45.0, Haley is at 14.2, DeSantis is at 10.4, and Christie is at 9.0. However, in Iowa, Trump is at 49.2, DeSantis is at 16.0, Haley is at 8.8, and Ramaswami is at 7.0, and nationally, Trump is at 57.9, DeSantis is at 12.5, Haley is at 7.4, and Ramaswami is at 5.6.
So, Trump has a commanding lead over all his opponents nationally, as well as in New Hampshire and Iowa. DeSantis is number two, way behind Trump, nationally, as well as in Iowa. Haley is number two, way behind Trump in New Hampshire. Ramaswami is number 4 in Iowa and number 4 nationally. However, a lot can happen between now and January 15, 2024, the day when the Iowa primary will take place, which is more than three months away. Whoever wins in the Iowa primary will indeed enjoy some momentum in the short run, although, it doesn’t guarantee that one would win the nomination.
Right now, it seems that Trump has a good shot at winning the nomination unless he gets into some serious legal trouble. Time will tell.

The Republican debates are the measure of popularity not individual primary or by state the second debate which was one consecutively by Vivek ramaswamy and of course behind Trump who is gaining more popularity the less he shows up. According to the Daily Mirror poll Trump is 42% and drama Swami is 26% between them they control 78% of the Republican vote and the low intellect aor what Trump calls the bird brain Haley is 6% totally pathetic. Trump will not have the DeSantis or Haley in his cabinet totally out a question his only choice would be Ramaswamy as a VP candidate and this ticket with Jim Jordan as a speaker of the house succeeding McCarthy and endorsed by Trump can’t beat this combination after the election Haley needs to look for a full-time job instead of being supported by wealthy campaign supporters and the money spigot will dry up fast.. We should not forget another Indian American by the name of Jindal, who was the governor of Louisiana and he contested for national election and he got less than 4% pretty close to Haley and he went into Oblivion. Not to be heard or seen again. Haley will follow his path to oblivion.

We should brace for Trump’s presidency. It will be the beginning of this country’s downfall. But, in the end people get what they deserve. May God save this country!

I can not refrain from expressing my opinion too.
October 6, 2023Do the American and Republicans want to elect Trump who has done any thing good for us Americans as a president. Sefl centered and money greedy for himself and his own family formed a fake university ripped poor students of their personal loan funds, cheated on his pregnant wife , had his lawyer pay hush money” got him in trouble. . Trump strained relation’s with various foreign dignitaries. Did not want o accept defeat, and wanted his vice president “killed” Did not pay taxes in NY ,moved to Florida and lay top secret papers in his Mara Lago courtyard. He does secret meetings with a business man re nuclear and submarine deals when he is not even a president any more. Truth always hurts when told. Insults judges and NY AG.
Do you want your children to have this sort of person as a “mentor?.
Listen to what Christy ex NJ governor tells you all the time about Trump’s deeds.
Think before you vote fellow Americans.
