The 2024 election season is heating up, with former President Donald Trump solidifying his lead over GOP primary rival Nikki Haley in the latest poll of registered Republican voters. As Super Tuesday approaches on March 5, the race is becoming more intense and the stakes are higher than ever.
According to the Morning Consult poll, Trump now has the support of 82% of Republican voters, compared to Haley’s 17%. These numbers represent a slight increase for Trump and a decrease for Haley from the previous week’s poll results. Despite Haley securing her first primary victory in Washington D.C., she has struggled to beat Trump in key early-voting states.
Trump currently leads the race with 273 delegates, while Haley trails behind with only 43. However, the outcome of Super Tuesday could potentially change the trajectory of the election and either solidify Trump’s dominance or spell the end of Haley’s presidential campaign.
Super Tuesday saw Republicans in a total of 15 states heading to the polls, with a significant number of delegates up for grabs. This marks a crucial moment in the primary season, with approximately 36% of the 2024 primary delegates being decided on this day.
Despite Trump’s lead and consistent support, Haley’s campaign is facing challenges. Her net favorability ratings have hit new lows, and some major donors have reportedly ceased financing her campaign. This could pose a significant obstacle for Haley as she tries to gain momentum and compete with Trump in the race for the Republican nomination.
As the 2024 election season continues to unfold, all eyes will be on the dynamic between Trump and Haley, and how the results of Super Tuesday will impact their respective campaigns. Stay tuned for more updates and developments in this highly anticipated and closely watched election.
