- With a win in the New Hampshire primary, former president Donald Trump is poised to make a big move toward the Republican presidential nomination and a rematch with President Joe Biden. Should he prevail, it would leave former U.S. Ambassador Nikki Haley, the only contender left for the Republican Party’s 2024 presidential candidacy, far behind the political curve as no nominee in a GOP primary contest has ever been. Trump emerged victorious from last Monday’s Iowa caucuses, and a loss, especially a resounding one, in New Hampshire would virtually block Haley’s chances of making a comeback.
- According to Republican strategist Matt Mowers, Nikki Haley can persuade supporters and contributors to carry on with her lengthy campaign to secure delegates to the Republican convention this summer provided she can keep the margin of victory small. Should that not happen, Donald Trump may emerge as the front-runner ahead of Joe Biden. Before the contest shifts to her home state of South Carolina, where she was twice elected governor but now lags the former president by hundreds of points in public polls, Trump is sure to win the Nevada caucuses on February 8.
- Voting in Dixville Notch began at midnight on Tuesday. A Suffolk University/Boston Globe/NBC-10 tracking survey conducted earlier in the week showed that Trump had a growing advantage over his rival, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, who had withdrawn from the race and backed him. Chair of the Republican National Committee Ronna McDaniel stated that their primary voters would send a clear message if President Trump does well tonight.
- President Biden made the choice not to run for office on the Democratic side, which is in line with his well-received desire that South Carolina be the first state to count in his party’s selection process. His supporters were hoping that he would defeat self-help author Marianne Williamson and Congressman Dean Phillips, D-Minn., in the Granite State as a write-in candidate.
- Haley maintains that she is capable of defeating Trump in their next one-on-one match, claiming that America is prepared for a generational shift led by him and Vice President Biden. Early on Tuesday, her campaign promised that, come what may in the second state to vote, the fight will go beyond New Hampshire.
