After delivering an impressive performance at the first GOP presidential debate, she \u200breceived a boost in the polls. Now, a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/bidens-lies-about-vaccine-mandates-come-to-light\/\" title=\"Biden\u2019s lies about vaccine mandates come to light\">recent poll suggests<\/a>\u2064 that she is the\u200c strongest contender to take on President Joe Biden.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<h3>Pandemic Politics Returns to the Senate as COVID-19 \u200bCases Rise<\/h3>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The CNN poll reveals that Haley is leading Biden by 6 \u2064points, with 49% of the vote compared\u200c to Biden&#8217;s\u200b 43%. This makes her \u200dthe\u2064 only Republican\u2063 candidate \u2064who surpasses the margin of\u200c error and holds a lead over the incumbent\u2062 president. Haley&#8217;s\u200c appeal is particularly strong among white, college-educated voters, a demographic that has leaned towards the Democratic Party in recent elections and\u200b potentially contributed to\u2064 Donald \u200bTrump&#8217;s defeat in 2020.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;If they nominate Nikki Haley, we&#8217;re in trouble,&#8221; warned a Democratic\u2063 strategist in\u2064 August, highlighting \u2062the concern within the\u200d opposing party.<\/p>\n<p>However, while Haley&#8217;s momentum has increased significantly\u200d since the debate, her overall national polling stands at \u2062just 6.2%, according to RealClearPolitics. Despite this, her campaign can point to the CNN poll as evidence of her electability, a claim\u200b previously championed by Governor Ron DeSantis of \u2064Florida.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>&#8220;NIKKI HALEY \u2063is our best hope in taking back the White House,&#8221; declared Haley&#8217;s press secretary Ken Farnaso, sharing\u200b data \u2062from \u2062the CNN poll. &#8220;We only have one \u2063shot. It\u2019s time to play to win.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Haley \u200bherself has made a compelling case\u200d for her candidacy. During the August 23 debate, she emphasized that three-quarters of Americans do not want a rematch between Trump and Biden. She also\u200c acknowledged\u200d that \u200dTrump is one of the most \u200cdisliked\u200d politicians in America, stating that a general election victory cannot be achieved with such \u2063divisive figures. Additionally, Haley took a practical approach\u200b to\u200c abortion policy, advocating \u200dfor <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/bidens-un-pick-urges-continued-u-s-presence-in-chinese-led-panels\/\" title=\"Biden\u2019s UN pick urges continued U.S. presence in Chinese-led panels\">finding common ground<\/a> on\u2064 issues such as\u2063 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/nikki-haley-shows-signs-of-momentum-can-she-keep-it-going\/\" title=\"Is Nikki Haley's momentum sustainable?\">banning \u2063late-term abortions<\/a>, promoting adoption, and protecting \u200dhealthcare providers with objections to the procedure.<\/p>\n<p>This stance caused \u2063a\u200c rift with former \u200cVice President Mike Pence and Senator Tim Scott of South Carolina, who called for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/mark-kelly-cant-hide-from-his-embrace-of-joe-bidens-awful-agenda\/\" title=\"Mark Kelly Can\u2019t Hide From His Embrace Of Joe Biden\u2019s Awful Agenda\">national abortion bans<\/a> that Haley believes would not pass in the \u200dSenate. Haley&#8217;s more moderate position may resonate \u2062better with voters in a general election.<\/p>\n<p>While the \u200droad ahead is long, the\u200c Haley campaign is focusing its efforts on New Hampshire,\u2062 the second state to hold a primary. A recent survey \u200cfound Haley tied for second place in\u200b the\u2064 Granite State.\u2064 Dave Carney, a Republican strategist based in New Hampshire, emphasizes that\u2063 Haley should\u200d not be underestimated, describing\u200b her as a serious candidate who has shown\u2064 no fear on the campaign trail. Democratic strategist Michael Stratton also praises \u2064Haley&#8217;s performance and believes that there\u2063 is still time for a non-Trump\u2063 candidate to emerge as\u200d a strong contender for the GOP nomination.<\/p>\n<p>Despite the skepticism\u200c of political experts, Haley asserts that voters \u2062are \u200dready to \u2064confront the hard \u200ctruths\u2064 about the election. She has been forthright \u2062about issues such as runaway\u200d spending, national \u200bsecurity, and parents&#8217; rights. Haley appreciates the engagement of Granite Staters\u2064 and remains\u200b committed to speaking the truth while offering solutions to address these challenges.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\">Click here<\/a> to \u2062read more from The Washington Examiner.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Nikki Haley gained momentum after an impressive performance at the GOP debate.
