Haley, DeSantis Attempt to Capitalize on Tim Scott Exit From GOP Main Race

Nikki Haley and Ron DeSantis are attempting to reap the benefits of Tim Scott’s exit from the Republican presidential discipline by scooping up his supporters, endorsers and donors in a race that continues to be dominated by former President Donald Trump.

The South Carolina senator introduced his exit late Sunday following lackluster performances in three GOP major debates and single-digit polling in Iowa, the place Scott had closely targeted his marketing campaign and nomination voting begins in simply two months.

An Iowa Ballot launched late final month confirmed Scott with the assist of seven% of seemingly individuals within the state’s Republican caucuses, whereas one other 10% listed him as their second alternative and one in three stated they have been actively contemplating him.
