45th President Donald J. Trump leads Nikki Haley by a whopping 37 points in her home state of South Carolina, where Haley claimed in her New Hampshire loss speech that she had a strong base of support. South Carolina will host the South's first Presidential Primary of 2024 next month before a host of other states go to the polls on Super Tuesday. President Trump is expected to sweep the contests.
Recent polls from South Carolina show that President Trump is leading Nikki Haley in her home state by a massive 37-point margin on average, with Trump registering the support of 62.2% of likely South Carolina GOP Presidential Primary voters, compared to 25% even for Nikki Haley.
Another almost 13% of voters said they support candidates who've dropped out, or that they are undecided, but even if Nikki Haley managed to win the support of every single one of those voters, it obviously wouldn't be anywhere near the number she needs.

Trump's big lead in South Carolina is only expected to grow following his win in New Hampshire and endorsements from almost all of his former GOP Primary competitors.
And in the wake of the New Hampshire primary, a fact that's been underreported by the media is this; President Trump's win made history, as it made him the first modern-era non-incumbent Republican presidential candidate to kick off the primary process by winning both Iowa and New Hampshire.
It is widely believed that the trend will continue and that President Trump will win every single state in the Union, as Nikki Haley is reliant on the support of a very small group of anti-Trump Republicans, as well as Democrats who are willing to cross party lines in open primary states to team up against President Trump by supporting her campaign.

It's easy to see why Democrats are lining up to support Nikki Haley.
Recent polls don't just show President Trump crushing the former SC Governor and UN Ambassador, but also defeating Joe Biden in the general election, in critical swing states and among critical demographics.
