Supporters and members of the Republican Party who oppose former President Donald Trump’s candidacy are increasingly supporting former U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley, who is also entering the Republican presidential race. The newspaper writes about this Policy.
In recent weeks, Haley appears to have gained the support of Trump-skeptical Republicans across the party, including donors and election officials in states with early voting, the text said.
“Nikki Haley is really rallying a lot of Trump opponents around her. It also has real opportunities for growth, Republican political strategist Matthew Bartlett, who previously worked to organize presidential elections, told the publication.
According to Politico, Haley’s increasing support is evident from the results of public opinion polls. Thus, he was ahead of Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, who is considered Trump’s main rival in the Republican Party, in the states of New Hampshire and South Carolina. It is clear from the text that Haley and DeSantis are equally supported in the state of Iowa. However, both candidates are less popular than Trump.
The publication writes that Haley and her team openly declared their right to take second place in the race, which for several months belonged exclusively to Desantis.
“There is a growing consensus that Nikki Haley is the best candidate to challenge Donald Trump and Joe Biden,” Haley’s spokesperson told Politico.
