Trump's supporters shift to DeSantis, impacting Haley's momentum

Trump's support among Republican voters is below 50%.

In the upcoming Republican primary race, the question of whether former President Donald Trump can maintain majority support among GOP voters becomes a focal point. While some argue that Trump's popularity may be waning due to the fact that he is polling below 50%, others believe this is wishful thinking perpetuated by 'other than Trump' factions within the party. The race has also drawn attention to potential contenders like Ron DeSantis and Nikki Haley.

If Ron DeSantis were to come in third place in the primary, sources suggest that his donors, originally favoring an alternative to Trump, may shift their support directly to the former president. However, Haley's prospects of continuing to build momentum may depend on her ability to secure second place in the race.
