Ron DeSantis is now polling third in South Carolina as the Florida Governor continues to slip following reports of a shakeup within his campaign.
A new Fox poll of early primary contest states shows that DeSantis is now behind both former President Donald Trump and his once-Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley in South Carolina.
Haley was able to gain ground in the Palmetto State because she was also the first female governor there, serving from 2011-2017. At the time, she was also the youngest governor in the country and the second governor ever of Indian descent.
While DeSantis is still polling second in the first-in-the-nation caucus state of Iowa, the gap with Trump continues to grow.
A Fox Business survey of Iowa Republicans shows that 46 percent of likely caucus-goers back Trump – giving him a 30-point lead over DeSantis’ 16 percent. In third place is South Carolina Sen. Tim Scott with 11 percent.
