Nikki Haley is gaining popularity among independent voters, offering an alternative to Trump for the Republican presidential nominee. Recent polls show significant support in New Hampshire, where her appeal to centrist voters and a growing independent base challenges Trump’s strong lead. The upcoming primary will be a crucial test for her campaign.

Haley appeals to unaffiliated voters frustrated with extreme views in both major parties. Independent voter rates have risen to 43% nationally. New Hampshire’s primary system allows independents to participate in either party’s primary, significantly amplifying their influence in the electoral process. Haley’s campaign resonates with voters seeking new political leadership.

The Wall Street Journal quoted a poll showing Trump’s strong lead among Republican primary voters in New Hampshire, with Haley and DeSantis gaining less support. Haley’s campaign faces an uphill battle, tested by the upcoming primary and the mood of independent voters in 2024. The support from New Hampshire Governor Chris Sununu also boosts her momentum.
