Will Democratic crossovers save her campaign?

  |   By Polling+ Staff

In this episode, Matt Towery and Robert Cahaly discuss the Republican primary in South Carolina and the polling results. They also talk about efforts to recruit Democrats to vote in the Republican primary and the potential impact on the election. The conversation then shifts to Nikki Haley’s campaign and her chances of winning in Georgia. They also discuss Ron DeSantis’ actions in South Carolina and the implications for his political future. The conversation concludes with a discussion on impeachment inquiries and the allegations against the Biden family.

Takeaways:

• The Republican primary in South Carolina has a significant gap between Donald Trump and Nikki Haley, but there are still undecided voters.
• Efforts to recruit Democrats to vote in the Republican primary are being made by Nikki Haley’s affiliate group, not the Democratic party.
• Nikki Haley’s campaign in Georgia is seen as a way to solidify her position in the Republican mainstream media, rather than a serious bid for the nomination.
• Ron DeSantis’ actions in South Carolina, including endorsing Trump and speaking at a Trump event, have raised questions about his intentions and support for Trump.
• Polls in Arizona and New Mexico show Trump leading, but it’s important to be cautious about interpreting these results too early.
• Impeachment inquiries and allegations against the Biden family are seen as politically motivated and may not have a significant impact on the election.
