Nikki Haley’s campaign in New Hampshire faced challenges as her state director was revealed to have ties to a dark money group supporting Democrats.
The group had significant involvement in the 2020 election, raising concerns for Haley’s campaign.
“I do think Haley has spent a massive amount of money here. She’s trying to appeal to liberal voters who are allowed to vote in this primary,” DeSantis said.
“I think that she’s performed better in polls than she would if it was just a normal Republican primary. So I do think they’re seeing that…I think a lot of it’s a factor of her dumping so much money into the state. I think an unprecedented amount of money,” he said.
“But I think her problem is Trump will run away with it in New Hampshire. I think that’s pretty clear at this point. He’s got the momentum from Iowa. And I don’t think anyone thinks that she can beat Trump in her home state of South Carolina,” he added.
New Hampshire Governor Chris Sununu, who initially predicted a win for Haley, is now suggesting that a strong second-place finish would be a victory for her.
Such developments suggest a challenging political landscape for Haley’s campaign in the state.
“It’s an absolute win. It’s a win and a reset button. If everyone that could vote in the primary comes out and votes … she’s going to win in a landslide, and that’s not an exaggeration,” Sununu said originally.
“We’ve got that wrapped up, guys … we’re gonna win.”
“We’ve already exceeded expectations in terms of a one-on-one race,” he later shifted. “You know, a strong second is going to be great; that’s wonderful.”
