Nikki Haley pulls even with DeSantis in polls, but can her hot streak catch Trump?
It’s no secret that the 2024 presidential race is unlike any other.
The man leading the Republican candidates is being threatened with jail time, and the man currently in office doesn’t know how to form a coherent sentence.
Stu Burguiere believes that if the Democrats succeed in putting Donald Trump in jail, he “might just win the election from jail.”
However, one candidate has been unexpectedly moving up in the polls.
That candidate is Nikki Haley, who has just pulled even with Ron DeSantis in the Iowa poll. The two are trailing behind Donald Trump at 16%.
“Everyone knows Donald Trump is going to be ahead in these polls. But the fact that Haley has pulled even with DeSantis is very good news for the Nikki Haley campaign,” Stu says.
Stu is not a Nikki Haley fan, but he’s also not a hater.
“She’s, you know, a Republican. Some of the views that she has, I don’t love some of them,” he says, adding, “I thought she was a pretty good governor of South Carolina when she was there. All that being said, I didn’t think her debate performances were all that strong.”
This poll is the first sign of serious momentum for the Haley campaign in Iowa, while she’s already been polling well in New Hampshire and South Carolina.
“She obviously was an ambassador to the U.N. She has a decent amount of expertise on the world stage. And central to her argument is a hawkish national defense,” Stu says.
Hawkish national defense is an argument that will grow in favor if there are any terrorist attacks, which Americans have been warned about since Hamas’ invasion of Israel.
In addition, the poll shows that 87% of Trump voters are either extremely enthusiastic or very enthusiastic. For Ron DeSantis it’s only 65%, and for Nikki Haley it’s 75%.
Stu believes that this might make Nikki Haley’s 16% “a little bit better.”

With 1.2 million midterm ballots still missing, Nevada is a warning sign to other states considering the switch to all-mail elections.
The 2022 midterms were the first major elections to occur in California after the Golden State approved all-mail voting in September 2021. Under the new system, all registered voters in the state are automatically mailed a ballot for each election cycle (Californians can still opt to vote in person if they wish). But during California’s […]

While some congressional Republicans might think the post-2020 election integrity fight is over, that couldn’t be farther from the truth.
Republicans are once again using the 'quality candidate' excuse as the reason for Herschel Walker's loss. They're wrong.

Usually when a person defrauds investors of millions of dollars and launders the funds to personal pet projects, he goes to jail. (See: Bernie Madoff.) But in FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried’s case, you get kid gloves. It was obvious corporate media decided to treat SBF differently from the start. When FTX first crumbled, the New […]
