Two new polls out this morning both point in the same direction: a big win for former President Donald Trump in Tuesday’s New Hampshire GOP primary.
Trump’s lead over former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley has slowly but steadily increased in the Suffolk University/Boston Globe/WBTS daily tracking poll over the past week. In interviews conducted Saturday and Sunday, Trump led Haley by 19 points, 57 percent to 38 percent.
That’s essentially identical to Trump’s lead in a new Monmouth University-Washington Post poll also released this morning. That survey shows Trump leading Haley by 18 points, 52 percent to 34 percent, with Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, who dropped out of the race Sunday, at 8 percent.
