As the New Hampshire primary approaches, a new Marist poll has revealed that former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley is the sole candidate who could defeat President Joe Biden in a hypothetical 2024 matchup. The poll shows that Haley would lead Biden by three points, while other potential candidates such as former President Donald Trump and Florida Governor Ron DeSantis would trail behind by seven and nine points respectively.
The significance of this poll is further emphasized by the recent endorsement of Haley by New Hampshire Governor Chris Sununu. This endorsement is seen as a significant boost to Haley's campaign, as Sununu holds considerable influence in the state's political landscape.
