Ron DeSantis (R-FL) but still \u200ctrails him by 2 \u200dpoints and more than 35 points behind front-runner former President\u200b Donald Trump, addressed a crowd of New Hampshire voters on Wednesday. She stated that they\u2064 will have the power to &#8220;correct&#8221; Iowa&#8217;s Republican presidential choice, referring \u2064to the\u2064 state&#8217;s primary taking place one\u2062 week after Iowa&#8217;s caucuses.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>&#8220;You know \u2063Iowa starts\u2064 it.

The\u2062 remark\u200d was met with applause from attendees. &#8220;And then my sweet\u200b state of South Carolina brings it home. That&#8217;s what we do.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>DeSantis&#8217;s campaign wasted no time in seizing\u2064 on her comment, calling it &#8220;unreal.&#8221;<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>&#8220;Nikki Haley belittles Iowa caucusgoers \u2014 \u200cclaiming their decisions will need\u2062 to be corrected by New Hampshire voters,&#8221; DeSantis War Room wrote on X, formerly known as\u2064 Twitter.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Even \u2062prominent DeSantis endorser\u200d Gov.

Meanwhile, \u2062Ron DeSantis \u2063is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/mlb-focuses-recruitment-on-diversity-to-bring-in-more-black-players\/\" title=\"MLB prioritizes diversity in recruitment for increased black player representation.\">making significant strides<\/a> in \u2062Iowa by outworking and outorganizing the competition day in and\u200c day out,&#8221; he wrote on X.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Haley&#8217;s campaign declined \u2063to comment on the matter to the Washington Examiner.<\/p>\n<p>The\u2063 Iowa caucuses are just under two weeks away, scheduled for Jan.\u200c 15, \u2064and\u200d will\u200b be closely followed by the \u200bNew Hampshire primary on Jan. 23.<\/p>\n<p>Iowa and New Hampshire have a mixed track \u200brecord when it comes to predicting eventual nominees for the Democratic and Republican parties, as well as the eventual presidents. South Carolina, which historically holds a primary later in the process ahead of Super Tuesday, has a more accurate record \u2064of \u2062selecting nominees and eventual presidents.<\/p>\n<p>A rivalry has\u2062 always existed\u200c between these two <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/desantis-super-pac-launches-south-carolina-parents-coalition\/\" title=\"DeSantis super PAC forms SC parents coalition.\">early nominating\u200d states<\/a>, both of which take pride in their\u200b roles of vetting presidential candidates and setting the \u200btone for the \u2062primaries and caucuses across the country.<\/p>\n<p>During a separate event in Londonderry, New Hampshire, on Wednesday, Haley&#8217;s \u200drecent endorser, Gov.\u2062 Chris Sununu (R-NH), confidently stated that Haley would &#8220;shock everyone\u2062 in Iowa with a strong second.&#8221; The DeSantis campaign wasted no\u200c time in holding Haley to this expectation, setting her up for disappointment if she fails to perform as well as Sununu promised.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>&#8220;Having a strong second-place finish was always our goal,&#8221; Sununu told the crowd. \u2064&#8221;We&#8217;ve got that\u200c wrapped up, guys. \u2026 We&#8217;re gonna win.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><a href=\"link\">CLICK \u200cHERE TO READ MORE FROM THE\u200c WASHINGTON EXAMINER<\/a><\/p>\n<p> <\/p>\n<h2>Is Nikki Haley a Republican presidential candidate?<\/h2>\n<p><span>Nikki Haley, a former governor of South Carolina \u2063and U.S. ambassador to the United Nations,\u2062 announced her campaign for the 2024 United States presidential election in a campaign video on February 14, 2023. Haley is the first\u200b woman of color to \u2063be a major candidate for the Republican presidential \u200dnomination. Lewis also commented on Haley&#8217;s statement, \u2064saying, &#8220;It&#8217;s clear that Nikki Haley doesn&#8217;t have faith in\u2064 the Iowa voters to choose the\u2062 right candidate. We believe that the people of \u200cIowa are intelligent and informed enough to make their own \u2062decisions without \u2062New\u200c Hampshire &#8216;correcting&#8217; them.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>This controversy adds \u200dto the challenges Haley&#8217;s campaign has been facing in Iowa.\u2064 Despite actively campaigning and trying to gain \u2063support from voters, she \u2062has struggled to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/ten-times-british-lockdown-rulemakers-broke-their-own-covid-restrictions\/\" title=\"Ten Times British Lockdown Rulemakers Broke Their own Covid Restrictions\">gain significant traction<\/a>. Her positioning behind DeSantis and Trump\u200d in the polls\u200c proves her struggle to gain momentum in the state.<\/p>\n<p>However, Haley&#8217;s focus seems to be shifting towards the New Hampshire primary, where she sees an opportunity for \u2063a breakthrough. By acknowledging the influence of New Hampshire&#8217;s voters \u200dto &#8220;correct&#8221;\u200d the decision made in Iowa, she is attempting to position \u200bherself as the candidate with broad \u2063appeal across \u200cdifferent states. New Hampshire, \u2062known for its politically engaged electorate, holds the first primary in the nation and has historically been crucial in shaping the presidential race.<\/p>\n<p>It is worth noting that New Hampshire&#8217;s \u2064political landscape differs from Iowa&#8217;s. While Iowa relies on a caucus\u200c system, \u200cNew Hampshire holds a \u200ddirect primary, allowing for a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/yes-i-will-charlie-crist-says-hell-ban-assault-weapons-by-executive-order-on-first-day-if-elected-florida-governor\/\" title=\"\u2018Yes I Will\u2019: Charlie Crist Says He\u2019ll Ban Assault Weapons By Executive Order On First Day If Elected Florida Governor\">larger voter turnout<\/a>\u2064 and potentially different outcomes. Haley&#8217;s \u200dcomment\u2064 may\u200c be an \u200dattempt to appeal \u2064to New Hampshire voters who may not align \u200bwith the\u2064 Republican candidate chosen\u200b in Iowa.<\/p>\n<p>Haley&#8217;s \u200bfocus on New Hampshire\u2062 is\u2063 evident, as she spent Wednesday addressing voters in the state. Speaking in Milford, she highlighted \u2064the importance of New Hampshire in\u2063 the presidential race and emphasized the role it plays in bringing the nomination process to\u200b her \u2064home\u200d state of South \u200dCarolina.<\/p>\n<p>Despite the backlash from DeSantis and his supporters, Haley&#8217;s \u200dcomment resonated with the \u2063audience, as it was met with\u2062 applause. This indicates that there may \u200bbe \u200da receptive group of voters \u2063in\u2063 New Hampshire who\u200b appreciate her acknowledgment of their role in the primary\u2062 process.<\/p>\n<p>While\u2062 Haley continues to trail behind DeSantis and Trump in Iowa, her deliberate\u2062 focus on New Hampshire suggests that she sees a path to success in the upcoming primary.
